Note di degustazione
Concentrated pear, quince, apple and Persian melon feature on an effusive nose and a luscious, glossy palate, to which zesty and brightly juicy Meyer lemon lends tongue-tingling, stimulating animation. High-toned floral and green herbal notes waft across the scene. The finish suggests a shimmering interchange arising from a flood of fruit colliding with a comet’s tail of mineral matter. In more prosaic terms, that finish delivers vibrancy, complexity and consummate refreshment.

The 2017 Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spätlese (AP #5) is deep and flinty on the complex, intense and concentrated nose. Lush and round on the sensual palate, this is a fleshy but precise and mineral Spätlese with great elegance, mineral tension and serious grip. The finish is long, piquant and salty—in any case, highly stimulating. Great aging potential. Tasted in March 2019.
Faint apple nose. Quince and lime and layers of spice, deep and complex. Although still so young and for now the sweetness and the acidity are two separate things. Needs time to knit in a quiet cellar. (TC)
