Weingut Battenfeld-Spanier
trocken Riesling
Gorgeous nose. Clean, mineral, honeyed, tangelo, apricot. Lovely fruit for Gutsweine. Really great depth as well for Gutsweine. Palate has terrific juiciness and great depth. Terrific texture and freshness with hits of honey, a hit of caramel and a lovey herbal streak. This is absolutely brilliant for what it is. Best version of this I have ever had. Exceptional length. Amazing distinctiveness. Has that herbal/savory/honeyed character that many 2018 Battenfelds show.

Jun 2nd, 2019Bitter citrus, potpourri and spice. Smells like 1er Cru and not Gutswein. So slate and feral. What a nose. Elegant and mineral on the palate with lovely minerality and length. Almost no fruit except echoes of citrus. Amazing palate presence.
