Dhroner Hofberg 624 Flaschen Riesling

B had at Saga and likes it. Sweeter riesling.

Beautiful, electric, slate and just a tad sweet.
Perfect for the new year.
Lots of white flowers and fruit.
Sad to see these go bye-bye.

Disappointingly sweet and flabby.
I hope it was a bad btl.
Twas beautiful before.

See previous note:
N: Lots of flowers( white)limes,slate, sea, lemon.
P: Electric acidity in an off dry package,
Peaches, apricots, lemons, slightly frizzante., perfect for 2nd night Gumbo.
This is a one off, with age…a treat.

Electric Acidity!
N: Peaches, After the rain, wet slate, a whiff of petrol. Apples, Pears, mineral.
P: Peaches, Mineral, Bright lemon, mouth filling, smacks w acidity, slightly on this side of sweet. Big.
Story is Twardowski inherited a 100 year old Riesling vineyard in Dhroner Hofberg pulled one harvest, 10% botrytis, then phylloxera killed it. A one off treat.
Completely balanced.
Day 2, glass left over in the fridge, rubber stopper ( nut not tight) , almost all there sans some aromatics. A9.2 def!
