Very lifted floral riesling aromas, clean and restrained. The palate opens with some sweetness and floral, 'powder puff' aromatics, while the palate is balanced and soft, the sweetness vanishing toward the finish, the aftertaste seems a mite short after the phenolics kick in. Very pleasant flavour and aroma. After extended breathing, i.e. The next day, it was delicious. I like the soft fruitiness achieved and enhanced buy a touch of sweetness.

It's ready now yet will age, as these wines do, it has plenty of flavour from fresh lemon and limes, their rind and glace too, a touch of mandarin and stone fruit. The acidity is softish, chalky, there's texture and it's pristine. Drink to 2024.
