"The staggering nose of fresh pineapple invites you to a voyage to the tropics with their rich colors and lush vegetation. Then comes the no less amazing palate which is simultaneously extraordinary in concentration yet miraculously feather light. Great citrusy freshness, but it's impossible to say which citrus fruit it is because it seems to flicker from Amalfi lemon to bergamot and then to pomelo, and on and on. Almost endless finish with the merest hint of unfermented grape sweetness. Drink or hold."

"Totally crystalline, silky and filigree in spite of the breathtaking concentration and precision. There's no way you could ever count the facets of this great masterpiece that remains a light-bodied Mosel riesling Kabinett. Then comes the totally overwhelming finish, the delicacy of this leaves you utterly speechless. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Riesling Graacher Domprobst Kabinett #01 opens with an initial, enticing whiff of tart but fully ripe passion fruit and a clarity that speaks of whistle-clean fruit. The palate is sweet, clear, bright and vividly rich with rounded but precise fruit. Wonderfully clean, with a slightly richer fruit appeal, there's utter juiciness and mid-weight on the palate. The finish tones this down with subtle zestiness, but the fruit remains full, rounded and sweet on the long finish. Available at auction: 900 bottles, 65 magnums. (Sweet)"
