Robert Parker:
“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 nose of dried herbs, hay, greengage, whipped cream and smoky elements. Overtly fruity yet playful on the delicately creamy palate and leaves a clean and pure feel of herbs and spices in the long finish.
Mosel Fine Wine: 94 points Drink 2028-48
Far more reserved out of the blocks than the #10 version, this wine will demand some extended bottle age. However, the potential is outstanding. The bouquet is a fine mix of pear, apple, salty slate minerality, bee pollen, petrol and spring flowers. On the palate it is deep, fullish and very precise, with superb cut, a great core and a slate bath of minerality on the long, tightly knit and focused finish. This will be stellar.
