A Winemaker's Dinner with Carsten Saalwächter (Restaurant 4850, Amsterdam, NL): Double decanted. Turns everything up a notch or two when compared to the 2021 Alte Reben, very impressive nose is the spitting image of a top Chablis Premier Cru (Butteaux from Thomas Pico comes to mind), generous and elegant palate, seamless and silky, aromatic green herbs, playful finish, excellent follow-through. Star quality.

Kraftig duft - citron, røg og let egefad. Masser fylde i munden. Behagelig citrusfrugt, østers, kalk. Ikke særligt fadpræg, som dog kommer i den lange (!) eftersmag. Medium+ syre. Høj kvalitet!

Rich and smokey nose, very concentrated and compact, oak and smoke. Reminds me of a grand Pinot Blanc, with more bite to the finish. Very good. Needs time.
