Tasting notes

Yellow colour. Intence and petroll nose with hints of minerals and flowers. Powerful, concentrated and sweet auslese in the mouth with matching acidity. Fruit quite petrolly with some flowers, minerals and citrus. Quite complex and still a little young fruit, but moving towards maturity. Long taste. Good 89 from the Saar.

Yellow colour. Petrolly nose with hints of lemon and flowers and mineral. Fullbodied in the mouth. Sweet but with high acidity. Fine balance. Fruit is petrolly and flowery. Fine and concentrated. Refreshing acidic finish and long taste. Fine Saar-wine.

Yellow colour. Nose shows petrol, slate, honey and flowers. Powerful in the mouth. More mineral here. Noticable sweet, but with fine acidity. Good weight. A little slimmer towards the end with some hints of citrus. Perhaps a little young.

Medium dark yellow colour. The mineral nose shows petrol, honey and slate. Quite steely, typical Saar. Fullbodied in the mouth. Quite sweet auslese, but finely balanced with high acids. Fine and complex fruit; mineral approach. More open than before with more old flowers and minerals. Good length. Very fine Saar-wine.

Yellow colour. Pretty nose. Petrolly, mineral complexity. Steel, some flowers. Sweetish and quite fullbodied Saar-auslese in the mouth. Steely, petrolly and mineral style. Some sweet flowers. Medium concentration. Fine acidity and good length. This is a very nice and typical Saar-riesling in a pure mineral style that starts to get mature now. A nice little auslese.
