From the Dudenstein parcel in the Sommerberg . Dances on the palate with beautiful acidity. Dry wine with 13.7% abv. Beautifully balanced.!!!!

Rich and mature. Hmmm. Makes me second guess the sponti talk on Mosel rieslings - I reckon it's probably to do with SO2. Quite a bit younger than the german rieslings in our little study the other day, but so much more advanced. Or maybe it's the sugar that helps with longevity in the german stuff.

Waxy, honeyed, floral, petrol notes, with the green apple and pear fruit playing second fiddle. Hint of aldehydes. Mineral and weighty. It was delicious!

Significant RS. Super ripe, but with surprisingly good acidity. I dig.
