Tasting Notes
95 points Wine Enthusiast
"Made from Riesling grown in the heat-retaining basalt soils of the Pechstein vineyard, this dry, intensely mineral wine balances nerve and tension and against luscious white peach and yellow-cherry flavors. It's silky and lithe on the palate but jolted by electric acidity and a long, steely finish. Tasted in early 2018, it's still closed and taut. Hold till 2023 and enjoy for years to come."
