    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The second Auslese in the line-up and again there is no botrytis in this bottling. Here the initial impression is all savoury herbal minerality, much less fruit focussed, with notes of wild rock, fine green fruit, strawberry and finally a touch of clear acacia honey. Subtle but powerful, mouthwatering, focussed and very long. Wonderful, moreish Auslese.

    Critic Reviews

    David Schildknecht,
    Vinous
    Like the corresponding Niederberg Helden, this reflects air-dried, healthy berries plus only a modest quotient of botrytis. Apple jelly and quince preserves are laced with vanilla and lime in a performance at once creamy and animatingly juicy. Hints of heliotrope waft across the nearly weightless palate, and the long finish, unusually for an Auslese, refreshes even as it soothes, revealing crystalline stony impingements.
