  Pure biodynamics! Light in the glass, only a subtle scent on the nose, little fruit, more herbs. Same in the mouth, quite dry but little acid, more spice, some chamomile or something similar. Overall very interesting, but not overwhelming. You shouldn't expect much power in this price range. That's what wine is good for! Not a fashionable over-fruited Sauvignon.
  
  Biodynamie pur! Im Glas hell, in der Nase nur ein dezenter Duft, wenig Frucht, mehr Kräuter. Im Mund ebenso, recht trocken aber wenig Säure, mehr Würze, etwas Kamille oder ähnlich. Insgesamt sehr interessant, aber nicht überwältigend. Man darf in dieser Preisklasse auch keine Wucht erwarten. Dafür ist der Wein doch gut! Kein Kaugummi-Frucht-Mode-Sauvignon!
