Lemon yellow. Apple scent still marked by fermentation aromas. On the palate green-herbal, mineral and with medicinal notes. Repulsive phenolic aromas. Decent length. Probably out of shape due to the late filling, close to the time of our tasting. We eagerly await the post-tasting, for which we will now take a little time. At the moment we see the (defensive and conservative) evaluation of the wine only as a thumb-point.

Light lemon yellow. Spontaneously spicy fragrance with hints of Swiss herbal sugar. The fruit is rather neutral, but the wine is full-bodied and well-balanced with good length, which shows the potential of this grape variety, which is mainly used as a table grape, for viticulture.

Bright yellow. Slightly nutty fragrance with little primary fruit. The spontaneous aromas reveal the producer in the concealed tasting. According to the grape variety with neutral fruit, but shows a balanced and stylish appearance on the tongue. Good length.

Bright, transparent garnet red. Individual scent, which reminds of red berries and potato chips. On the tongue with cool and sweet fruit, silky velvety tannins and a distinctive acid backbone. Ordinary length. In the current stage of development, the Ovarius decanter is urgently needed.

🯅The rating of the wine is based on a single taster. The taster is named in the context of the rating. The tasting was either open or blind. In case of a blind tasting, it is explicitly labelled as such.
🯅🯅The rating of the wine is based on two tasters. The tasters are named in the context of the rating. The tasting was carried out according to the four-eyes principle, in which both tasters agree on a joint rating.
🯅🯅🯅The rating is based on a tasting by our jury and indicates the Mean value calculated by us from the individual ratings of the tasters. Our mean value is based on the median.
The wine was evaluated in a blind tasting. We have strict rules for blind tastings. The tasters do not receive any information that would allow them to identify the wines. The tasters are only given access to further information that goes beyond the subject matter if it is absolutely necessary for understanding the wines.
🕓We only had limited time to taste the wine  - typically during an open tasting event, such as a wine fair. It was therefore not possible to observe the development of the wine in the glass over a longer period of time. The informative value of our rating may therefore be limited under certain circumstances.
The wine was tasted as a barrel sample or before an official test number (Amtliche Prüfungsnummer or Staatliche Prüfnummer) was issued. We only accept samples of unfilled wines in exceptional cases, and then only if we can assume sufficient stability in the bottle for a period of at least three months.
During our tasting, the wine showed conspicuous sensory characteristics. This does not necessarily have to be a wine fault. We categorise the quality and quantity of the abnormality and include it in the rating. Wine faults such as cork taint or an atypical ageing generally lead to a complete rejection.
Tastings that refer to the same bottle of a wine are visually summarised by a dotted line.
