This has pliancy and cushioning of fruit, with notes of grapefruit and lychee, offset against precise, zippy acidity. Joyful, this offers excellent value
The Badstube is wonderfully open in style, food-friendly, ripe, yet focused – lovely wine

Later picked grapes in this Spätlese add intensity at all levels and characte. This is balanced by an intricate delicacy of acidic bone structure and mineral tension. A beautifully complete nose, of fine crushed earth minerality, ripe lime, gooseberry and apricot fruit. The palate is powerful from the off, drivingly intense and with an unabashed potency which is really rather exciting.

The nose here is an aromatic delight – green apples, white flowers and honeysuckle. The palate is reassuringly plump – or cushioned is perhaps more accurate, as it sacrifices nothing in linear precision and laser-like acidity. You can feel the added warmth of the Doctor’s steep slope, turned like a solar panel to the afternoon sun. A reference Kabinett.
