The smell is typical, varietal Rhine Riesling with aromas of aged wine, already with somewhat tertiary characteristics. Ripe and slightly dried fruit dominates with hints of citrus, which contributes to the complexity of this wine. The very rich fullness of the body completes the impression of ripeness of this wine, and the slight bitterness in the finish contributes to the longevity in the mouth. A complex wine.
