Note di degustazione
The haunting, high-toned nose offers pistachio and almond extracts, quince and white peach preserves, accompanied by saline, alkaline, kelp-laced ocean breeze. A corresponding complexity of nut extracts fruit preserves and marine minerality emerges on the glossy, glycerol-slicked palate, along with mouthwatering, elusively meaty suggestions of urchin roe. The similarly multi-faceted finish is superbly-sustained. There is such a glycerol-rich and soothing aspect to this performance that initially one doesn’t notice how efficacious are its acids – until their brightness registers in the finish, or until one glances at the wine’s analysis and realizes how uncannily its high sugar is counteracted.

The 2016 Rheingau Riesling Kiedrich Gräfenberg Auslese is super precise and intense on the palate, with flinty slate and candied grapefruit as well as honey flavors. Generous, rich and intense, this is a lush, sweet and perfectly ripe Auslese with less piquancy but even more complexity compared to the Turmberg. It is superbly balanced, endlessly lush and salty, and its acidity is almost mild. Tasted at the domain in October 2017.
Rich and indulgent citrus fruit that persists with impressive power across the palate. Very good sugar integration. Luscious yet very drinkable. (RH)
A fragrance of honey, fresh raisins and butterscotch inspires sweet dreams, which become reality on the palate. Add a generous helping of juicy tropical fruit, the subtle bitter tang of Seville orange marmalade, juicy acidity and a rich texture and you have the (almost) perfect Auslese. (MS)
