Description
Notes of spice and crushed earth abound in this intensely ripe but classic expression of the red-slate slopes of Ürziger Würzgarten. Delicately sweet and delightfully tropical, it balances rich, ripe melon and pineapple flavors against a zippy spine of lemon acidity. The finish is long and smoky. Delicious in youth but should evolve beautifully through 2035 and hold longer still.
