Petit, pert and nearly perfect. After 5 days of eating and drinking (at least 30 different wines from memory) this is a welcome antidote. With a fleeting spritzig this is light, sharp and sweet. Sulphurous and stone like to begin before smelling and tasting like a freshly opened bag of sun dried apricots. A superb life affirming wine.
Excellent.
94.
Now - 2018.

Boxing Day saw a trio from Graach's "Kingdom of Heaven" open at our house. Willi Schaefer, Kabinett, 2006, Dr Loosen, same, and a Max Richter, Spatlese. All exceptional. Must be good dirt?
That's a lot of posts, Doc.
The Richter was the elder statesmen of the bunch, a '97. Meant to mention that before.
A lot of time wasting. . . but at least my sleepless nights have some form now!
