Riesling Erdener Treppchen Spatlese 2016
Orange and pineapple are tinged with sage and sassafras on a site-typical nose that anticipates the zest, pungency and sap exhibited on a palate whose glycerol-richness and creaminess point toward the influence of a bit of botrytis. The lusciously lingering finish displays admirable clarity and ample primary juiciness, along with intriguingly site-typical smokiness and crushed stone suffusion.
