Trarbacher Huhnerberg Spätlese** Mosel Riesling
Last time I gave this a 10. Today it’s damn close. Wow. Sick, expansive nose of guava, pineapple, tangerine, spice, flowers, herbs and mango. Perfect ripeness. Just so complex and beautiful. Rainwater. Honey. Endless aromas. Wow that palate. As perfect as a cloud. Stunning density, texture and all in a light package yet doesn’t intensity. Young but so great. A miraculous wine. Amazing acidity, not too high but caressing and invigorating. Concentrated and elegant with flavors of mango, papaya, red currant, and tangerine. Some apricot as well. Finish is slatey, gamey and spicey. Divine juice.

Ok here is my note as of 10:54 Am. Opened at 8pm last night so basically still on day 1. Insane perfectly detailed nose of peach, apricot and slate that is so perfectly defined it’s just beyond. Makes JJ Prum look like JV Prum. Spice. Oh glorious spice. Wow. Wow. Peach skin. Like the best peach skin ever. Apricot flesh from an an elite apricot. Not those shitty apricots. Tree bark. Wood shavings. Impossible a wine is this complex yet so clear. Palate is perfection again. So dense, so elegant, clearly perfectly defined peach fruit. Apricots. Citrus. Super texture. Icing on a cake. Insane purity. So clean. Beautiful delicate acid. So pure. Long dissipating finish. Perfection.
