Note di degustazione
The 2017 Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Auslese is noble and fine on the coolish and flinty, still refreshing and precise nose. Lush and round on the palate, this is an elegant, refined and rich, mineral and salty Auslese that includes only 25% of botrytis berries. The finish is salty, piquant and still rich, but the acidity is playful and perfectly interwoven with the texture. Not as quiet as the Spätlese right now but with drama, tension and a future. Tasted from the 375-milliliter bottle in July 2019.

Picking for this wine extended a bit farther into October than it did for the corresponding Brücke, and a bit more of what was gathered was botrytized. Despite that, ripe white peach and lime on the nose seem to promise a fresher, brighter palate impression than that conveyed by the Brücke Auslese, this is in fact just what ensues. Billowing honeysuckle perfume, suggestions of green herbal essences, and pungent green tea supply inner-mouth allure, while a remarkable sense of stony underpinnings along with savory sweet-saline suggestions of lobster serve for intrigue and saliva-inducement. This might lack quite the textural allure of the corresponding Brücke, but finishes with sensational, interactive persistence, not to mention promises more to come.
Some truths are hard to believe and this is one of them; it won’t let you go, so there\'s no way of denying the excellence of this filigree masterpiece. Almost endless finish that simply could not contain any more mineral freshness. From organically grown grapes. Fair\'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Very limited production.
RS 112 g/l. Honeyed apricots and lemon. Rich, mouth-filling sweetness and real purity of fruit and mouth-watering finish. So tangy and long but needs time. (JH)
