Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Joel Payne - 01 Jan 11
(for 375 ml.) Pale golden yellow. Subdued aromas of pineapple, wild honey and lime. The sweet peach fruit and salty minerality are extremely complementary on the palate; elegant more than rich in spite of a touch of smoky botrytis. Delicate and appealing auslese.

Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
