Vintage 2012

A cool, wet summer in Germany, saved by late warmth in September and October. Yields were overall in line with long term averages, although the Mosel lost up to 25% of its crop. Quality is widely agreed to be very good indeed, and dry Riesling as well as Spätburgunder managed to flatter early, but could be found lacking in acidity. To be drunk sooner rather than later. Noble sweet wines are in even smaller supply than usual.

Written Notes

Bright yellow with golden hue. Ripe nose with complex aroma reminiscent of vineyard peaches, fresh and dried apricots, with hints of honey and white lilies in the background. Elegant slate spiciness complementing the nose. On the palate well structured with ripe fruit, apricots and pear, hints of minerality and well balanced acidity, a wine with depth and length.
