“A magnificent winemaker, one of the world’s finest. Glorious, pleasurable but extraordinarily complex, savoury and compelling. Wines of purity, integrity and restraint, but understated power and intensity.”
John Gilman:
“Wines that legends are made of. One of the most serious ranges to be found in Germany.”
Gorgeous scents of almond, whipped cream, caraway and citrusy fruits. Playful and elegant on the palate. The acidity provides superb structure to the long and intense finish. This is a superb auslese in the making, with a lot of tension and precision. 96 points Mosel Fine Wine Drink 2028-48
An outstanding wine in the making with just a touch more fruit-driven personality than the AP #11. The bouquet is very expressive out of the blocks, a gorgeous mix of pear, mirabelle, tangerine, slate, gentle notes of honeycomb and a topnote of citrus blossoms. The palate is pure, full-bodied and absolutely loaded with beautiful fruit on the attack and mid-palate, with a lovely undertow of slate, great focus and grip and a long, zesty and beautifully balanced finish. Breathtakingly beautiful auslese! 96 points Jon Gilman viewfromthecellar.com Drink 2026-85
