Pale golden yellow. Candied apricot, clove, nut oil and a touch of smoky botrytis on the nose. Creamy, tropical fruit flavors are nicely accented by salty minerality. This impressively rich auslese boasts a compelling finish animated by lemon curd and slate. 93 points - Joel B. Payne, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Jan/Feb 13

Cask sample. Smells so youngbs and citrus and reductive and a slight pear aroma of fermentation still. Rich and creamy texture - cool, dense and full of energy even with this level of sweetness. A complete baby but with a great future. Rich orange and apricot aftertaste with a touch of spice.
