Kinheimer Rosenberg Spätlese Riesling 2017

At first thought this would be higher. It as it warmed and opened actually lost some of the acid that was keeping it balanced and became a bit too sweet. Still a very nice food pairing, and very classically mosel. Only 8.5%. — 6 days ago

Vintage 2012 | no visible change of color, Turkish delight smell, lavendel, honey and an incredible vibrant taste. Extremely well balanced. Merkelbach gem. I pair it with the Belgian Remoudou cheese 🥰 — 3 months ago

So there is still residual sugar. 6 years old now. Acids also alive and kicking. A joy!
