James Suckling 98/100
Hang your nose into a glass of this astonishing dry white wine and let yourself be swept away in a cloud of smoke! Then, when you’re inside it, the wine’s subtle, citrusy beauty will unfurl and you’ll realize that it can only be riesling. But the show isn’t over yet. Finally comes an avalanche of minerals at the enormously fresh, super long finish.

This pulpy Riesling, just at the beginning of his life, asserts itself through its power. Showing its muscles you can feel its density.

Linden blossom and just a smidge of oil-slick-on-concrete. Much better balance than their 2016. Chewy; steely tension; but ripe greengages and lime in the middle. Could do with a bit more length. (TC)
