These Spätlese trocken Rieslings continue to blow my mind. I could smell this all day and be happy without ever taking a sip. Sweet petrol and flowers galore. Comparable to walking into a blooming garden after a rainstorm. Nose gives you a million and one reasons to believe it will be sweet, and then the palate is bone crushing dry. Going from sweet, canned stone fruit on the nose to underripe fruit on the palate. Crisp and firm - almost interrupting dry acidity, palate gives you green apple, pear, melon rind and citrus peel. Almost all floral elements completely extinguished. I can't get over these wines.

Acidity is bright, wine is bone dry, just the way I like it. Awesome mouth feel, fantastic Riesling from the motherland at a good price!
