  Honey, mango, orange. Quite a bit more sweetness than the 2011 but not cloying. Not (yet?) as balance as the 2011.

  Showstopping wine with incredible energy. Balance of acidity and sweetness create a volatile mix of joy. This will be good for many years to come.

  This has mellowed down in term of sweetness compared to the recent bottle (2015). This is why I love German sweet, in particular Riesling as while this has great depth of sweet fruits, it also has lovely amount of acidity to prevent it from being flabby. Mouthwatering!

  Brilliant. Incredibly fresh, juicy nectarine, citrus, and more tropical fruit flavours tinged with honey, florality, and crystalline minerality, all coming together in a package that's intense yet remarkably light, perfectly balanced with generous sweetness matched by powerful acidity, and finishing with amazing length.
