"Even when it comes to the 2004 Kiedricher Grafenberg Riesling Beerenauslese, there is still a salty mineral dimension on this wine’s headily decadent nose and plush, creamy palate. Peach jam, musky floral perfume and butterscotch dominate the aromas and flavors, leading it in a sedate, broad finishing direction. Like a delicately salted caramel Riesling ice cream, this hangs on in a palate-caressing, fascinating fashion."

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
A historic Riesling region along the Rhine, producing racier, often drier wines of structure and mineral depth from south-facing slopes.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
