Pale yellow. Vegetable scent of stewed apple, persimmon and tobacco. On the palate with the typical mineral spiciness of the red slate, red berry accents and sweet-sour fruit play. Predominantly dry taste. Ripe, integrated acidity, grippy mineral spiciness and very good length.

Pale yellow. Animating fragrance, primarily characterised by stone fruit and citrus notes, but also reminiscent of gooseberry and predominantly yellow, but also green apple. Slightly floral and vegetable on the nose with subtle hints of tobacco. Fine aromatic, with ripe, delicately vibrating, integrated acidity and good balance. Dry taste, again some tobacco, subtle mineral spiciness, long and persistent.

Light yellow. Cool Riesling fruit with aromas of (Williams) pear, carambola and rhubarb, delicately floral and vanilla undertones. Exudes freshness and liveliness despite the hot and dry vintage. Mineral, distinctive and full of character. Vital acidity, excellent length.

Greenish yellow. Partly floral, partly herbal scent of stone fruit and dried herbs. Creamy, melting richness, powerful attack, seems a little monolithic. Well integrated, ripe acidity. Very good length and persistence. Long lingering herbal aromas.

Reflective yellow, appears concentrated and almost oily in the glass. Distinguished, restrained, but extremely complex bouquet that does not primarily come up with fruit aromas, but paints a picture in the taster's mind of a forest floor after a summer rain and mushrooms sprouting from the earth. Shows a very independent aroma and skilfully combines concentration and fineness with elegance. Creamy fruitiness, moderate acidity, phenolic spiciness. Very long and persistent.

Pale yellow. Opens on the nose with some citrus and distinct minerality, exotic-looking, herbal, with red berry accents and hints of elderberry and not yet fully ripe wild strawberry. Excellently balanced in the mouth. Vital but also ripe acidity, discreet fruit sweetness, herbal and, in the context of the vintage, with a certain phenolic quality that is well compensated here and even animating. Developed according to age. Spicy and herbal. Excellent length.

Light yellow. Nose marked by bright fruits, especially citrus and stone fruit, with floral hints reminiscent of white flowers. In the background, aromas typical of the green slate, carambola and rhubarb. On the tongue with juicy, at the same time fine Riesling fruit and elegant acidity. Not overly sweet, excellently balanced. Mineral notes. Very long and persistent.

🯅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.
