  So delicious, with a glycerine’s texture and ample peat, apricot, orange peel and lemon curd notes. Never cloying. The acidity is there, though barely. Lacks the crystalline complexity of the great Eisweins but really lovely.

  Was expecting more acidity and depth of fruit.

  Tart apricot, orange peel and lemon curd, with enough acidity to balance this quaffable delight, but lacking the crystalline complexity of a great Eiswein.

  Apricot and citrus on the nose, followed by dried apricot, and honey on the palate. Long finish. I enjoyed the fact it wasn't cloyingly sweet.
