Golden colored. Like essence of apple juice with lifted lemon and a gorgeous long finish. Sweet and precise. Perhaps a bit less defined fresh and memorable than the very best from here

This is extremely pure and concentrated Riesling from one of its most famous ambassadors, Helmut Dönnhoff. Super ripe yet purest Riesling flavors on the nose, think of raisins and honey and a touch of pink grapefruit. On the palate this 6 vol-% ice wine is thick and oily textured and very sweet due to the super concentration of 2010. However, this all is beautifully structured by the piquant acidity which both give this wine vibrancy and an eternal life. 0.375 l cost approx. 100 Euro. World class Riesling. Drink now or better in 40, 50, or 80 years. (Sorry but it's Riesling...)
