The kind of concentration you normally associate with BA and TBA has been miraculously crammed into this sleek silhouette of a Spätlese. It also has a diamond-like brilliance that is mesmerizing. The super mineral finish doesn't want to stop!
...deep and flinty on the complex, intense and concentrated nose. Lush and round on the sensual palate, this is a fleshy but precise and mineral Spätlese with great elegance, mineral tension and serious grip. The finish is long, piquant and salty—in any case, highly stimulating.
Concentrated pear, quince, apple and Persian melon feature on an effusive nose and a luscious, glossy palate, to which zesty and brightly juicy Meyer lemon lends tongue-tingling, stimulating animation. High-toned floral and green herbal notes waft across the scene. The finish suggests a shimmering interchange arising from a flood of fruit colliding with a comet’s tail of mineral matter. In more prosaic terms, that finish delivers vibrancy, complexity and consummate refreshment.
Ripe lemon and pomelo. Although the sample is very cold, there’s impressive fruit concentration here – depth as well as length, and the acidity is so crisp that the sweetness is significantly moderated.
