"The bouquet is deep, nascently complex and absolutely classic, as it soars from the glass in a blaze of lime, pear, apple, plenty of wild yeasts, complex slate tones, petrol and lime blossoms in the upper register. On the palate the wine is fullish, complex and racy, with a fine core of fruit, bright acidity and superb length and grip on the dancing finish. Another really beautiful bottle in the making."

Germany's most celebrated Riesling region, its steep slate slopes above the river yielding featherlight, low-alcohol wines of electric acidity, delicacy and extraordinary longevity.
