Tasting notes

Golden colour. Honeyed and botrytized nose. Some nice minerals and floweriness. A touch of petrol. In the mouth you do not at all expect this, as usual with Leon Beyer, to be dry. But it is very close to dry. Fullbodied and honeyed. Mature fruits and good acids. But the alcohol is IMO a tad too high. Rather four-square and rustic than elegant. Good length.
