Lime blossom and flint spark from the glass, followed by a palate of striking clarity and drive. The texture shows remarkable finesse. Almost weightless yet deeply concentrated. While citrus oils and stone fruit build to a long, saline finish. From Rheinhessen's steepest parcels including Hipping and Pettenthal, this legally dry bottling drinks beautifully now.
