Willi Schaefer
Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett Riesling
This leaps out of the glass with abundant aromas of ripe pears, orange marmalade, wet stone, sea breeze
The palate is electric, with intense flavours of juicy granny Smith apple, peach, apricot, passion fruit, raspberry and fennel. very high acidity. Supremely complex and elegant.
Very long finish - like, the longest I’ve experienced in a Riesling to date. My mouth continues to water 30 seconds after the sip.

Wife has been craving a sip of this all the time and honestly I don't mind finishing it....

Jul 22nd, 2015Clearly too early to be drinking this, but its lineage and potential are clear. Ripe banana, sweet herbs, and pineapple balanced by zippy acidity.
