This is a superb south-south-west facing site dominated by grey slate. It is a little known fact that most of the Sundial (its English translation) vines are ungrafted. This Spatlese had a brief skin contact pre-fermentation. A pale yellow colour. It leads again with a crab apple note, then oily, doughy/waxy elements, then wet slate and shoe polish. Medium acidity and medium sweet, it shows high extract and soft texture, low but balanced alcohol and medium body. It has a nice length and fruit intensity of crab apple, slate, wax and shoe polish and medium finish. Another long-hauler that will be enjoyable its entire life. 2023-2035–IR
