Tasting notes
This is still quite strongly reduced at first, and hints at (more than exhibits) superb notes of greengage, passion fruit, yellow and white peach, orange, mint, and smoke. The wine has great presence on the palate. Quite some juicy exotic fruits join the party and add an extra dimension to this already very complex wine. The wine is delicate, smooth and stunningly long, and leaves one with a great sense of candied fruits in the after-taste. What a glorious Auslese in the making!
