9.0

Past it’s best for a few years now, but still very interesting to taste and absolutely not completely gone.
Garnet colour. On the nose as expected a lot of tertiary aroma’s like tobacco, coffee, ceder, chocolate, meaty, smoke, leather, mushrooms, earth, caramel and balsamic. On the palate it is confirmed that the fruit has faded and so have the tanins. This make the wine a bit thin and structureless, like you see often with wines if this age. Great experience!

After tasting the ‘13 vintage last year, this ‘15 had a lot more to offer; citric fruits, green apple, some herbaciousness and minerality. There is obvious oak and and high acidity. It has a long finnish and great intensity of flavours. Really well made classic white Bordeaux. — 6 years ago

Very special experience. Still some black and red fruit flavours left and completely integrated tanins. Loads and loads of tertiary flavours like cacao, earth, leather, ceder, coffee...Showing off with a very longlasting finnish and notes of liquorice and smoke on the endpalate. Impressive. — 6 years ago

Great example of Mosel Riesling; high mouthwatering acidity with an almost electric intensity. Lots of citric fruits and some tropical notes. This wine will probably develop very nicely. Well worth the €17! — 6 years ago
