Tasting notes

Yellow colour. Fine mineral nose. Great depth. Mineral and floral, some aged aromas of petrol and burnt sugar. Full-bodied and quite sweet for a spätlese. Great concentration. Lightly rustic style, but again great depth and a mineral wine. High acids give good balance and a long citrusy finish. A wine that seems a lot younger than it's age. Great now and will last.
