Riesling Erdener Treppchen Spatlese 2018

- 93 points -

The 2018er Erdener Treppchen Riesling Spätlese was harvested at a f ull 94° Oechsle in the prime (“dark red”) Busslay sector of the vineyard, and was fermented down to sweet levels of residual sugar (85 g/l). It offers a gorgeous nose of white peach, fine herbs, floral elements and smoke. The wine develops the gorgeous juiciness of an old-style “drinking Auslese” with orchard fruits, whipped sour cream and a nice kick of zest on the palate and leaves one with plenty of mouthwatering fruits in the long and playful finish.
