Tasting Notes

92
Vinous Joel Payne - 01 Jan 06
(for 375 ml.) Pale golden yellow. Musky peach, a floral touch and a bit of licorice on the nose. Smoke and honey give way to spicy acidity on the palate. A well-balanced, vivid auslese that finishes with an almost salty minerality.

Germany is renowned for its diverse, high-quality wines, primarily white varieties like Riesling. Thriving in cool climates and regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz, German Rieslings range from dry to sweet, showcasing vibrant acidity and minerality. 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.
