Quick impressions at a trade tasting. My usual 5 star rating system- but all in brackets as many of these were barrel samples.
intense nose, raw pineapple, edgy, oranges, on the palate sweetish, very tight, good length, quite promising but a rough ride today, the goods are there and this was rarely 2017ish in its unruliness, a wine I want to revisit in bottle after release as I might be greatly underestimating it [**]+

Ripe and sweet pineapple and tropical fruits. Still pretty stinky sulfurous nose.

A whole lotta sulfur on the nose but the taste is ripe, boisterous, and filled with lemon and yellow stone fruit. Maybe more mineral than the Hofberg?

Really enjoyed this, can't really decide if I like this or the Hofberg kabinett more. Both are fantastic.
