In the glass, the wine has a saturated, deep lemon-gold color. Aromas of ripe peaches, candied grapefruit, and Haden mangoes move in and out of the foreground, later alternating with dried honeycomb, orange oil, yellow passionfruit and pineapple as the nose evolves in the glass. Compared with sweet Riesling, the insistent, compelling perfume of this fabulous Rieslaner Auslese is more tropical (more mango, passionfruit, and ripe pineapple), yet on the palate is seasoned with no less laser-like racy acidity, and plenty of palpable saline minerality, which carry the flavors through what seems to be an endless finish.
