Floral, herbal and fruity aromas and emphasized mineral and acidic flavours which give the wine a very good structure. Serve this refreshing wine slightly chilled. As aperitif and, especially when more matured, in combination with seafood or poultry, or to be drunk by itself.92 Points-The Wine Advocate “Redolent of cherry, pear, lime, and mint; is satiny yet refreshing; palate-saturating yet almost weightless; and finishes with infectious fruit intensity, pungently zesty citricity, and mysterious peaty, saline, savory, faintly animal nuances. Like the other Spatlese bottlings in this collection, this should perform admirably for at least a quarter century.”

90 Points-Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar “Fresh bouquet of bosc pear and acacia blossom. The palate offers a delicate sweetness, with an attractive interplay of apricot and saline soil tones. This rich spatlese finishes with lipsmacking elegance.”

91 Points-The Wine Spectator “There's good intensity, yet this comes off as a little on the light side in terms of flavor. Peach, lime and slate notes mingle on the gossamer texture, and this lingers nicely. Drink now through 2028.”

100% Riesling. The Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region is known to be one of the most northern, and thereby coolest, wine-growing areas in the world. The consequence is a rather slow and extremely long vegetation period, mostly until November or even December. These climate conditions give the Riesling grape time enough to develop expressive fruity, floral and herbal aromas and flavours, keep a relatively high acidity and absorb the fine minerals from the slate soils. In order to balance the acidity, the natural grape sugar is typically not totally fermented into alcohol, a certain amount of residual sugar is kept. This method of vinification together with the cool climate conditions result in a rather low alcohol content, too.
