Score 19/20 · Drink 2003-2020, Jancis Robinson MW, Dec 2003
Dense mineral nose and real tingle on the palate with enormous weight of excitement and density. Lots of sweetness and acidity. Already lovely, but it has great potential. (JR)

Like the corresponding Spatlese, this shows a lot of primary yeastiness today. The palate displays pear and apricot nectar with lemon meringue; sweet, rich and slightly oily. An exceptionally long finish of lemon candy, apricot jam and marzipan shows great refinement, delicacy and purity, and sufficiently enlivening and enticing acids. One would hardly guess that the fruit was entirely botrytized. 2 stars.
