Thörnicher Ritsch Spätlese Riesling 1994

Nothing on earth like old mosel Riesling.

Nose is green apple. Green apple flower. So pretty. Absolutely gorgeous. As it opens you get like this aromatic of wind on the top of a mountain. The wind has grabbed aromatics from a field of herbs. Epic.

Palate is green apple. Mineral. Still so fresh. Like bring into an apple. Just a hint of age.

Finish is green apple skin.

Would guess 5 years old.

3 weeks in this is iconic. Just this green apple skin perfume. Ethereal. Screams MOSEL. Like green apple flowers. Like this petrol made of green apples that got stuck under the earth for 2000 years.

Palate is so perfect. Just perfect. So mosel. Green apple.mineral. Elegant.
