Here's the Big Daddy of the #EmrichSchönleber estate and as one taster recently commented..."like liquid rocks" due to the high #slate content in the vineyard, which gives the wine its distinctive #mineral character. Again, this wine will benefit tremendously from not only further bottle aging, but also decanting or even double decanting prior to serving. #Halenberg #Riesling #GrossesGewächs #dry #trocken #Nahe

My personal favourite of the dry #Riesling flight tonight. The complex palate nicely echoes the nose and ends on a subtle mineral note. Well worth keeping. — 10 years ago

Named after the cranes which migrate south annually and hover above these vineyards to catch the upward currents on warm afternoons. Previously named the #Halenberg #Riesling #trocken, this wine actually comes from a steep upper portion of the "#Halenberg" vineyard and tends to be very #mineral in character, due to the great amount of gray #slate in the soil. A pure, mineral, beautifully crafted dry Riesling. #EmrichSchönleber #Halgans #Riesling #trocken — 8 years ago

We are huge fans of this vintage and huge fans of this glorious #wine--but be patient--it's a sleeping giant that needs at least another 3 years bottle age plus decanting! #GermanWineSociety — 10 years ago

This awesome #GG from the great #Halenberg vineyard and the past decade's finest vintage is beginning to really bloom--this #magnum version leaped out of the glass and gave me a big kiss! #KellerParty — 10 years ago

Derived from younger vines of the greater "#Halenberg"
vineyard and drinking perfectly after a couple of years in bottle! #EmrichSchönleber #Mineral #Riesling #trocken — 8 years ago

Another monumental #GG from this blue slate-based vineyard... power, depth, concentration and tremendous structure from its core of supportive, ripe acidity... Lay it down for at least 3-5 years... In any case be sure to double decant as it currently needs plenty of air. #emrichschönleber #riesling #halenberg #2013 — 9 years ago

#Manresa also boasts one of the finest selections of fine #German #Rieslings, which they feel marries beautifully with their Asian-inspired cuisine.
A glorious half bottle of Emrich-Schönleber #Halenberg Spätlese was the wine highlight of our evening! — 10 years ago
