Needs a couple of days for a whiff of SO2 to blow off. Then, it’s all white peaches and wet slate. Incredibly pure and nimble, even though the concentration and weight are massive.

Rich, corpulent, plush...yet taut and electric. Cherries, yellow fruits. Powerful and typical Nahe minerality. Exuberant and refined at the same time. One of the best '15s I've tasted. #nahe #emrichschönleber #riesling

Sweet, but balanced by incredible acidity. Candied grapefruit, wet slate. A touch of wet earth and yeast. Ripe, long finish. Greatness!

#Riesling from our #Schönleber friends... off-dry but with such pronounced acidity profile the overall impression is much drier... #mineral notes abound...another crystal clear vibrant beauty! #EmrichSchönleber #2013 #Lenz #Nahe

An older German term meaning "spring" and this off-dry Riesling is just that: refreshing, easy-drinking, delightful. #Lenz #Emrich-Schönleber #Riesling #Nahe

Weird. It smells a bit like gasoline. But tastes great and refreshing. Citrusy and acidic.
