  Creamy, lush, concentrated, long, and rich, the wine is packed with grapefruit, lemon, green apples, flowers, and spice in the perfume. The palate is sweet, ripe, fruity, oily, and focuses on spiced yellow citrus peels, touches of mango, and mineral essences, all of which carry through to the endnote. The wine blends 71% Sauvignon Blanc with 29% Semillon. 13.9% ABV, 3.31 pH. Picking took place August 20, and August 27. Drink from 2023-2045.

  94-95 vvPunkte (71.4% Sauvignon Blanc, 28.6% Sémillon, 13.9% Alkohol) Was für ein Duft, tiefgründig, steinig, kühl, viel Zitrusfrucht, auch Pfirsich und Ananas, weisse Blüten, ein Gedicht. Im Gaumen filigran, was für eine Eleganz, das schwebt über die Zunge, zeigt ein reife Frucht, unterlegt mit cremigem Schmelz und einer gut integrierten Säurestruktur, der Wein schreit nicht, ist zurückhaltend und erhaben, hinterlässt im Abgang einen Mix aus Zitrusfrüchten und exotischen Gewürzen. Langanhaltend, harmonisch und von ausgezeichneter Qualität. 2023-2033 (April/Mai 2021) vvWine.ch

On the palate the wine is bright, crisp, creamy, concentrated, long and intense. The sweet, ripe, fruity, oily, fresh, finish with its spiced yellow citrus, touches of mango and mineral essences carries through to the endnote.
