A site-typical aromatic amalgam of struck flint, huckleberry and crushed stone mingles with hops, papaya and green mango, anticipating the piquant, smoky, slightly austere impression on a silken palate. Wisteria perfume adds allure that persists in the mouth, while white peach wells up to convey unexpectedly generous finishing fruitiness. To an even greater extent than with this year’s Vulkangestein blend (around half of which originates in Felsenberg), there is a remarkably persistent and profoundly mouthwatering evocation of toasted shrimp shells and oyster liquor with all of the mineral and animal diversity and intrigue those convey, as well as striking clarity and an exhilarating sense of lift.Inc.

Displaying much brighter, crunchier fruit than the corresponding Kupfergrube – though analytically-speaking the two wines’ acid levels hardly differ – this leads with penetratingly smoky and zesty scents of lime, grapefruit, apple, marjoram and black tea. Tart-edged, piquant citricity is buffered by an impression of palpable density and crushed stone suffusion as well as by an almost plush palate feel. Generous primary juiciness serves to guarantee refreshment, and considerable dissolved CO2 enhances a sense of animation that persists into a rapier, vibrantly-sustained finish transparent to myriad herbal and mineral nuances.Inc.

Picked in an especially exposed parcel a day before the “regular” Spätlese was brought in, this bottling exhibits a surprisingly cool note of mint and a bite of cress to accent its luscious, pure apple and white peach.

A site-typical aromatic amalgam of struck flint, huckleberry and crushed stone mingles with hops, papaya and green mango, anticipating the piquant, smoky, slightly austere impression on a silken palate. Wisteria perfume adds allure that persists in the mouth, while white peach wells up to convey unexpectedly generous finishing fruitiness. To an even greater extent than with this year’s Vulkangestein blend (around half of which originates in Felsenberg), there is a remarkably persistent and profoundly mouthwatering evocation of toasted shrimp shells and oyster liquor with all of the mineral and animal diversity and intrigue those convey, as well as striking clarity and an exhilarating sense of lift.In Bond€250.00 -

Displaying much brighter, crunchier fruit than the corresponding Kupfergrube – though analytically-speaking the two wines’ acid levels hardly differ – this leads with penetratingly smoky and zesty scents of lime, grapefruit, apple, marjoram and black tea. Tart-edged, piquant citricity is buffered by an impression of palpable density and crushed stone suffusion as well as by an almost plush palate feel. Generous primary juiciness serves to guarantee refreshment, and considerable dissolved CO2 enhances a sense of animation that persists into a rapier, vibrantly-sustained finish transparent to myriad herbal and mineral nuances.In Bond€250.00 -

Picked in an especially exposed parcel a day before the “regular” Spätlese was brought in, this bottling exhibits a surprisingly cool note of mint and a bite of cress to accent its luscious, pure apple and white peach. These herbal inflections add to the delightfully tingly, refreshing finish, possessed of crystalline clarity, stony mineral impingement and mouthwatering salinity. This comes as a lovely surprise given the usual expectations that “gold capsule” will signal additional ripeness or botrytis.In Bond€89.00 -

From a south-facing site in the Felseneck, this delivers scents as well as luscious palate presence of mint-, cress-, and lily-garlanded ripe white peach. The silken palate is sedate and there is a flattering hint of caramelization, but substantial acidity makes its presence felt in the animation and sheer refreshment offered by an impressively sustained, buoyant finish. Intriguingly, by analysis this is virtually identical with the corresponding “regular” Spätlese, yet this gold capsule rendition is at once riper in flavor, more transparent to mineral nuances, more strikingly buoyant and more delicate.In Bond€97.00 -
