So incredibly thick and sweet it's almost chewy in texture, with aromas and flavors that feature a fascinating interplay of fresh and dried apricots, peach and citrus, kept lively by healthy acidity. The finish lasts for minutes; the wine should age well for decades.

This is nicely balanced, with a relatively light body and sweet fruit, yet enough grapefruity acids on the finish to offset the residual sugar. Bright apple and pear flavors sing loudly, alongside hints of honey and citrus.

Lime and mineral flavors are pleasant enough, nicely carried on a sweet, low-alcohol frame, but the aromas and finish are marred by a slightly vinegary note of volatile acidity.

This seems a bit simple and confected for an Erstes Gewächs offering, with superripe, fruity aromas and flavors of apple, melon and lime. It’s still a nice wine, medium-bodied and cleanly made, just lacking the minerality and complexity you’d hope for at this level.

Ample and off-dry with spunky notes of crushed flowers and fresh herbs. Finishes on a charming note of baked apple. This likable wine is a good choice for a big crowd.
