  In der Nase einerseits recht hell mit viel hellem Steinobst und auch etwas grünem Apfel, andererseits durchaus mit ein paar dunklen Beeren und vor allem reichlich Rauch. Verhalten (und mit Luft) schimmert immer wieder mal ein etwas grün-grasiger Eindruck durch.
  
  Am Gaumen ist das sehr saftig mit sehr gut integrierter Säure, hat schönen leichten Schmelz und das typische Riesling-Paraffin. Dazu deutlich griffig-mineralische Phenolik und auch sehr guter Extrakt. Sehr gute Balance und einfach extrem stoffig. Immer wieder auch etwas pfeffrig-pikant.
  
  Keine Überlänge, aber bekanntermaßen lässt sich ja auch in 90 Minuten alles Wesentliche ausdrücken.
  
  Trinkt sich jetzt sehr gut und muss für mich auch nicht mehr so ganz viel älter werden.

  First of two bottles. Maturation mostly in large oak barrels (1000L Moselfuder).
  Nose has a touch of cork. Luckily, no cork on palate but concentrated minerals (salty slate), apricot, lemon grass tea, intense herbs, high but excellent delicate acidity, and a long finish.
  
  A bargain at 21€ (on sale in Nov 2021). Also highly rated by Bilger (19+), Suckling (94) et al.
  I bought 6 bottles of 2019 as well and I am looking forward to compare this to 2018.

  Just gorgeous but far too young. Slightly honeyed peach, with apricots, smoky mineral oil, slate, and hints of citrus zest. Texturally pure, with a nice balance between mineralty and creaminess, there is a lush richness in nice tension with the screaming fruit and acid of youth. A good future here.

  pnp. Pale hue. Nose classic. Mouth dry salty and fresh. Mostly structured by green lemon peal, nice acidity, ending mineraly on thick pebble stone. To young, needs two more years at least to get a little more polite. 89-90
