Professional reviews

Winespectator (93)

A ripe and rich dry riesling with plenty of peach and apricot character, the palate generous and creamy, the acidity very discreet. Long, succulent finish with a hint of butterscotch.

Spitz. A subsite of Axpoint at 226–267 m with deep and nutrient-rich subsoil.
Wide and sweeping aromas of apricot and clementine, white blossom and herbal/citrus accents. Sudden switch to a deeper, warmer and more complex orange profile on the palate. Grippy texture, good concentration, and a long, saline finish. Still waiting for all the pieces to find their proper place.
