Swirl this awake to reveal a world of dried hayflower, lemon peel and tart, baked apple. Its lifted, elixir-like chamomile scent goes straight to the pleasure center of the brain, signaling a celebration of maturing Riesling. Dry, taut and fresh, it shimmers with lemon zest and lemon-scented incense.
...nose mingling gentian, elderflower, seaweed, mussels, salt spray and chicken stock... Sage, fennel, peach kernel, lemon, alkali and wet stone all chime in on the silken, buoyant (11.5 percent alcohol) palate, rendering a carpet of richness and intricate complexity that unrolls in a mouthwateringly saline finish of polished and prodigious length.
Apples with this kind of aroma only really exist in your imagination. Sleek and lithe with a long, precisely contoured finish.
Very clear and perfectly ripe on the delicate nose and provided with ripe and stewed apple aromas... The finish is slightly bitter but persistently salty/mineral and tensioned.
