Relaxed Wine evening with great Pizza (Restaurant Holz und Feuer, Kirchheim, Germany): Glass: Sophienwald Tasted blind. Clear, medium golden nose. Easily identifiable as a very good Sauvignon Blanc. Lots of cassis, grass, elder. Fresh, but you could sense the ripeness, very dense. On the palate also dense, deep, salty, good balance. Classic SB notes. Medium(-) acidity. My oldest Quarz so far and a beautiful experience. 89-90 Drink within the next 2-3 years.

Saved a few bottles to see how they would develop as this is supposed to age 10 years or so. For me this was disappointing as when young its a lovely drop. but now its a bit flat & its more mature flavours really don't hit the spot.
