Description

Tasted by Paul S on 12/28/2010 & rated 95 points: What excellent stuff. This was an absolutely superb Auslese, batting the more famous Dellchen out of the park. The nose showed a couple of years older than one would expect, with drops of petroleum, some rubber and then plenty of noble tones, with sweet honeyed notes, some lime scents, green herbs and a nice minerality that made me suspect that it might be a Mosel. The palate was all youth though, It had a gentle sweet softness but also had such beautiful balance that it was quite incredible - just brilliantly integrated acidity laced through rich flavours of peach and nectarine, and a touch of grapefruit and finally some ripe sultanas at the end. It was at once fresh, but also gloriously, meltingly delicious as it spread across the palate. My only negative comment (if it could be counted as that) was that the wine did not have the longest finish in the world, but it was certainly respectable, with plenty of depth and expression as the wine gracefully stole across the back-palate. Yum!
