"The 2005 Hermannshöhle Auslese is another profound young bottle. . . .The stunning bouquet blazes away in blend of white cherries, lychee, pulverized stones and spring flowers. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and intense, with a bit more obvious botrytis adding sizzle on the attack, and then the minerality taking over from the mid-palate back on this very, very long and profound finish."

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 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.
