This has been open for a few days and I think that’s helped. This is very dry for me and seems in the trocken side of Feinherb. Maybe just a touch too light but if you catch it right after a drier wine, it shines. Similar to a Falkenstein in some ways with lots of lime; lime pith, green herbs and some minerals. It also shows some yellow peach and apple that mark it as Ludes. Very crisp and light from nose to finish and quite precise and elegant. Excellent acid and balance. Maybe just a touch low on the volume knob for me but I’ll check again from this bottle. Hopefully tomorrow. I liked the Spatlese Feinherb more. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 15.5/20.
Day 2: pretty much unchanged. I like this but the palate is missing a little intensity/fullness for me and the finish is a bit sharp and bitter

Wow, even feinherb in 2019 has acid. Excellent wine, maintains real Kabi weight instead of veering heavier, and should unfurl nicely in the next couple/three years. Screwcap. Excellent.

Great balance of sweet and acid - a really proper feinherb, not using the sweetness to hide something. Killer.
