Strong golden yellow colour. Delicately smoky notes and ripe yellow fruit on the nose, delicate hints of roses and marshmallow. Pineapple and ripe peach on the palate, mineral nuances. Very complex, well-integrated sweetness, mineral components on the finish.

The wooden box is filled with the Beerenauslese Zweigelt and 3 wine jellies.

The elegant gift box contains 6 Trockenbeerenauslesen Noble Reserve in a small bottle (0.187 l).

Deep ruby colour, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Ripe cherry fruit, a hint of dark berries, floral nuances of hibiscus. Medium complexity, red berry texture, fresh structure, subtle berry sweetness on the finish, already accessible. Tasted as a filtered sample in December 2018, the 2016 Blend 2 Trocken offers an elegant and buttery bouquet of dark and red berries and cherries along with cassis, tobacco and toasty aromas. Intense and sweet on the palate but with elegance and good freshness, this is a fine, well-balanced and charming blend of Cabernet, Merlot and Zweigelt. Good concentration and length. 89/100 The Wine Advocate / Stephan Reinhardt
