"Bright aromas of fresh apple, star fruit and nut oils. Densely packed but showing enormous verve and even an element of delicacy to its papaya flavor, this Riesling is kept alive by its brisk acidity. The clear, refreshing slate character on the long, spicy finish make this the estate's finest SpÀtlese of the vintage."

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.
