Tasting notes

Clean pink colour. Fruity nose with hints of rec currant, nettle, minerals. Fine, quite intence and fresh. Fullbodied schilcher in the mouth. Fresh and acidic and quite fruit-driven with good concentration. Currant and citrus. Nettle. Some minerals. Currant in the finish. Typical high acids, but as extreme as normal in the balance. Good length.
A quite mild and fruity schilcher with good concentration. Very fine.

A year in bottle has changed this wine more that I though. Some of the young top fruit is gone and replaced by a mellower fruit with a hint of wet forest-floor. Orange-pink colour. Fine and refreshing nose with hints of currant, citrus and a hint of wet forest-floor. Fresh and acidic wine in the mouth. Rounder fruit than previous bottles. Hints of currant and citrus. But again that more evolved mushroomy note. Acidic and long taste. Fine wine for the price.
