Ürziger Würzgarten Spätlese Saar Riesling
#2002s were generally overshadowed by the international press in favor of the 2001s, which, in themselves, were indeed lovely #Mosel #Rieslings. However, as time goes by, it's becoming more and more obvious that the the tables have turned now that some of the baby fat has been assimilated into what have turned out to be utterly beautiful examples of what Mosel Rieslings are all about: finesse, elegance, minerality & harmony!
I could drink this all day until the cows come home and still want more! #2002 #ÜrzigerWürzgarten #spätlese #Loosen

Really delicious. Harmonious and complex - just enough sweetness to go with cleansing acidity.

Apr 18th, 2014Lovely combination of sweetness and acidity. The acid comes through crisply in the finish. The sweetness is quite subdued at this point, and the wine has aged sufficiently to drink now. A great choice.
