Tasting notes

Yellow colour. Lightly greenish hues. Pretty nose. Complex and shows some development. Highly mineral. Hints of honey, petrol, with air some botrytis-notes showing. Fine botrytis for this year. Sweetish riesling auslese in the mouth. Light fat and some hints of botrytis. Still quite clear and fine fruit. Mineral style. Hints of honey, petrol. Not as steely as one expects from Saar. Also quite round and kind Saar-wine and makes me think more of Mittel-Mosel. Light dry-extract on the finish. I liked this very much. A great effort from this vintage. Starting to drink nicely now, but will last for many years.
