"This has intense grapefruit, sea salt and white pepper flavors that explode across the palate and are modulated by lemon curd and cream notes. Ripe peach fills the finish. Distinctive and powerful. Drink now through 2015. 333 cases made." -94 points Wine Spectator |
Description:
"Medium green-yellow. Smoky flint, green apple, banana, grapefruit zest and black pepper on the nose. The wine's pronounced varietal expression also comes through clearly in the mouth, which features abundant pepper, grapefruit, apple and banana peel flavors. Fairly full-bodied but elegantly focused thanks to vibrant acidity. Notes of flint and dill join the fruits and spices on the finish. A very versatile food wine that can be paired with anything from grilled fish to spicy chicken dishes. Drink now to 2017." -92 points- Peter Moser- International Wine Cellar
"This is a gorgeously rich wine, smooth and concentrated. The tropical fruits, added to apricots and green plums, and the spicy edge, fill the mouth with a creamy texture. There is light acidity, just enough to give a final shape to the wine. Screwcap." -91 points Wine Enthusiast
"Sandy residual soil dominates this vineyard, with the mineral content of the soil coming from layers of washed up sedimentary rock from the Setzberg vineyard. In the Spitzer Graben, at the foot of the Setzberg vineyard, south-west facing, the vines are now all between 25 and 45 years old, with the older vines in particular providing the basis for intense wines suitable for cellaring."
"Subtle, exotic, aromatic fruit with hints of banana, pineapple, white peppery spices; elegant, silky texture, with fine fruit, minerality and length: beautifully harmonious in its complexity. The more elegant partner to the wines from the Loiben vineyard." -Winery
