Schloss Schönborn
Hattenheimer Pfaffenberg Riesling
Alas, the sun is setting on this old girl, but she still had a little life of white raisin, honey, and petrol. Oh, to have met her in her prime!

Sep 26th, 2014Slight oxidized quality on the nose, ripe red apples, pear, baking spices, a touch of toasted coconut, apricot, ripe peaches, stone fruit. Petrol. On the palate elite spritz, intense and fruity on the palate. Lots of ripe fruit. Peaches and apricots. Dried apricots too. Off dry. Very complex and juicy. Pleasure to drink.
