Note di degustazione
The 2016 Niederberg Helden Riesling Spätlese is clear, fresh and pure but very reduced at this early stage. Lush, intense and racy on the palate, this is a salty-piquant and grippy Spätlese with tension and aging potential. Keep it for 8 to 10 years! Tasted March 2018.

Mirabelle , pear and white peach on the nose translate into generous fresh fruit juiciness on a polished, silken palate. Honeydew melon adds a ripe and luscious dimension to the fruit as it heads into a sustained, buoyant, slate-lined finish that both soothes and stimulates. The high residual sugar here is entirely supportive and its sweetness unobtrusive.
A lot more smoky and fumy on the nose than the Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Spätlese. Tastes drier and more mineral, already more expressive. Mouth-watering finesss and length. VGV (JH)
Still a little unsettled on the nose but shy aromas of green fruit and fresh herbs show plenty of promise. The palate is more forthcoming with a delightful composition of crunchy green fruit, crisp acidity and more than just a saline hint of minerality. As the flavour is left to expand in the mouth, it briefly focuses on sweet seduction, before a fresh breeze from the herb garden takes us to an exquisite finish. (MS)
