"This beauty starts off by offering primary flavors of wild yeasts, dried fruits and flowers, yellow peach, banana and bakery products before riper and more refined notes of apricot flower, whipped cream and a touch of honeyed fruits kick in with airing. This is all about refinement and finesse as the botrytis impact on the palate is expressed through creamy flavors instead of honeyed ones. The mouth-coating, intense but airy cream adds to the overall structure so typical for a long GK-styled wine. The finish is very pure and fine. This captivating Auslese is just so nice!"
