Served with a mess of Thai take out. Somewhat reserved in terms of it’s fruit profile, ripe granny smith apple and the like are definitely present, but it’s a little off center stage as the wines mineral component seems to dominate in this I believe to be cool-ish vintage. Worry ye not, this has all the trademarks of a that comprise the ‘Merkelbach smile’: light as feather, great acidic structure, wonderful mouthfeel…and oh, flat out delicious. Yums.

So different from the previous wine. Has an anisic creamy quality, vanilla. So light, like a feather. Great balance.

Ung og ganske nøytral på duft. Pen fruktkvalitet i munn. Har en ren og appellerende ferskenfrukt med god sødme, men savner nok litt nerve.

This was delicious even now. Fresh and floral, doesn’t even feel that sweet since the acid is so high.

Very, very structured. Particularly on the back end! RS is there and at the front, but not "sweet" drinking. faint nose.
Not even SLIGHTLY fruity. 8.5% abv but with great body and great acid.
Really nice.
Day two acid dies down and it fattens up in texture. still not much on the nose
