  This was outstanding, rich and expansive, and for my palate maybe a bit sweet for kabinett. Tropical notes like pineapple and guava coat the palate. A remarkably high quality wine, in need of some spicy food to tame but very good in its own right. Served next to a 2022 Falkenstein #9 (trocken) and while my style trends more toward dry wines, one can’t help but notice the remarkable quality here.

  From a small maker (about 4 hectares - or close to 10 acres if that makes more sense to you) with great sites who takes immaculate care of his fruit. Haart's Moselle wines strike me as being very pure, very traditional and very cheap for what you get. The source is fruit from Grosse Lage (Grand Cru or GG equivalent), the maker learnt his craft with Keller and Egon Muller - I think you call that 'pedigree' and it shows.
  
  You could easily think this was a Spätlese style and at 8% ABV there is a distinct residual sugar element, but I feel it is just a notch or two below what I see as true Spätlese.
  
  This is beautiful on day 1 open; however, it is on days 2 and 3 that it really comes into its own, developing more depth and pungency without losing any of the gorgeous freshness that it has on day 1. Tropical fruits, ripe red apple, pineapple notes and such a long clean finish. I know $100 AUD (South Pacific Pesos) is a fair whack for wine but seriously, the experience is so deep I would pay double without hesitating.
  
  Very similar in weight and style to the best JJ Prum and I can't really give higher praise. This is wine for the mind and the spirit. I don't like to hand over 'Outstanding' ratings easily, but I can simply see no basis for denying this one.

  Lys, nesten vanndig farge. Floral duft av hvite blomster, fersken, ananaslake, lime. Svakt perlende, behagelig smak med lys smaksprofil, smak av fersken, lime, grønne epler. Merkbar sødme, god balanserende syre. Slank, ren, middels lengde, søt, leskende frukt i ettersmaken.
