Georg Rumpf is slowly coming into his own at this estate. After the marvelous 2011s, it was clear that this vintage would be touch anticlimactic, but the spätlese from the other side of river in Rheinhessen--that is, from the Scharlachberg in Bingen--was a pleasant surprise. And the whole collection was crowned by an ice wine of a purity that not many managed in 2012.
