Tasting Notes
Surely the snow queen of Auslese Goldkaps? Introvert and smoky. A fine-boned delicacy - like a feather dipped in apricot syrup and frozen into a snowflake. At the same time there's apricot kernel and a hint of deliciously ripe fruit, voluptuousness all but hidden under a cloak of coruscating acidity. Pain and pleasure.

This offers a gorgeous nose of melon, grapefruit, spices, herbs and honey. The wine develops a superbly clean feel of aniseed fruits, pear and a hint of apricot and honey on the palate, which gives way to a delicately creamy sense of fruits and herbs in the delicately honeyed finish. This is a beautifully elegant and superbly balanced wine in the making. Oct 2016, www.moselfinewines.com, Drink: 2030-2055
