Brilliant. Every bottle of Frühmesse I try is brilliant. This is best bottle of any vintage that I’ve tried. Easily GG quality. Stunning nose of citrus, mineral, it’s got a tight aromatic core or citrus and mineral with some fresh herbs as well. Loads of apricot. Stunningly detailed and precise with its aromas that are so beautiful and to be made out of high end crystal. Gorgeous. Deep, pithy and engaging fruit on the palate that is packed with minerality, explosive fruit and structure. So damn pure. So silky and the texture of this wine is so damn impressive. The length is just unreal. This has structure for 15-20 years.

No formal notes. So crystalline and pure. Closed though. Needs 3-4 years.

Wow more geeky than the 15. So piercingly mineral. Citrus peel but lingering hint of tropicality on the finish. Deep and concentrated. I feel like this should improve with age. Bought from Fass Selections. ... day 2 the rich density is more prevalent. This has potential upside over this level as it ages. Perhaps significant.

More of a wine geek wine than the 15 but should age gloriously. Nose of lemon zest. Palate is cleanly mineral. Striking. Lemon sparking water lemon on the palate. Lovely concentrated finish which leads me to believe that this will be a geek rockstar in 5 years. Bought from Fass Selections. ... an hour in the richness is kicking in. Like concentrated rocks.

Needs about 90 minutes to open up.

Nose is very dense slate

Palate is fantastic. Dense slate. Some finely crushed rocks. Some yellow apple. Delicious.

Nose is Fresh ground rocks.

Palate is mineral with just a hint of sweet lemon.

Awesome wine. It really grabs at you in the palate. Very present.
