This is a first-rate riesling from this special site in a special year. It is expressive, revealing on the palate early and pushing through into its sustained finish. The site is a key part of this wine. Its orientation pushes picking time up to three weeks later than other parts of the vineyard, leading to more hang time, allowing the flavour intensity to build while retaining the essential acid balance. Perfumed lemony lime and floral aromas are pretty and intense. There is a slightly chalky character through the delicate and intense palate. Precise and defined with a bracing acidity contributing to its palate tension. It is a wine that will age beautifully.
