Robert 94 Points 2008 Vintage: 'A high-toned nose of liquorice and maraschino; litchi and apricot distalle; wisteria, honeysuckle, and rowan in Deiss's tous-cepages 2008 Burg led me to anticipate even more than the modest sweetness that greets the taster on a silken palate. In a manner reminiscent of this year's Langenberg, this displays lovely lift and sheer lusciousness of fruit that engages in positively shimmering, kaleidoscopic interchange with profuse and alluring floral essence and saline, chalky flinty mineral notes in a riveting, truly haunting finish. This should be a profound pleasure to follow for 15-20 years.'
