". . . great delicately fiery scents of grapefruit, passion fruit, white peach and caraway. The wine is rich, round and quite forceful on the palate, at least by Joh. Jos. Prüm standards, yet some noticeable C02 and ripe acidity balances this nicely out. A hint of honey and pineapple make their appearance in the after-taste. This wine, made in the “feine Auslese” style of past days, is a terrific interpretation of the more powerful side of Zeltinger Sonnenuhr."
