Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2020
$75.00One of the great Spatlese vineyards, this is richer, deeper and more exotic than the cooler Juffer. Ripe fruits of paw paw, apricot, yellow peach lime, white flowers, and dried herbs. Super fine palate, slender and tender, but with waves of decadent fruit. Woven acidity that is always present, but plays a support act to […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spätlese 2020
$60.00From the upper storeys ,and therefore cooler, of the Brauneberger Juffer. Fine and tense palate with gorgeous stone and citrus fruits, gardenia and bergamot. Very lively palate, and the fruit is juicy, the structure linear and precise. Great vintage? Pretty close! Coiled perfection. Waters Wine Co

Dr Thanisch Berncasteler Badstube Riesling Auslese 2017
$73.00Light to mid-yellow colour, and a reductive smoky nose at first, joined by rich honeyed floral and fruit aromas, the richness of the wine undercut by bright acidity and the finish clean and refreshing. The aftertaste is very long and the acidity mouthwatering. A gorgeous wine. (75 g/l sweetness). Drink 2020-2035. 96 Points – Huon Hooke therealreview.com

JJ Prum Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese GOLDKAPSEL 2016
$205.00Out of Stock
Slightly closed on the nose. Full, open palate. Juicy, lime, kiwifruit and spice. Luscious and full of energy. Waters Wine ’18. What a fantastic bouquet! The 2016 Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Gold Capsule is super deep, intense and precise on the nose where flinty/stony notes and very fine (and slightly spicy) raisin and grapefruit aromas are […]

Carl Loewen Riesling Ritsch Auslese 2019
$75.00Remarkably complex nose of yellow fruits, mango, starfruit, lime marmalade, peach and pear. Truthfully, this is very hard to describe, due to the level of complexity and detail, but I’ll try! Luscious and piquant, with ripe tropical fruits, cut through with citrus, cherry, honey and a faint dusting of herbs. Refined and detailed, the sweetness […]

Clemens Busch Marienburg Spatlese 2020
$80.00Gigantically fresh, with a whole garden of fresh herbs, plus white peach and a touch of white currant. Great energy whipping it down the road on the sleek and focused palate. There must be quite some natural grape sweetness in here, but the acidity it so vibrant that you barely feel it. From biodynamically grown […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Auslese Gold Capsule 2019
$172.00A beauty close to perfection. It displays intense, perfectly ripe, healthy and refined raisin fruit on the nose along with tropical hints, herbal notes and dashes of lemon juice, while the stony/mineral expressions remain rather in the background but still add excitement and distinction. On the palate, this is an incredibly juicy, piquant, refined, salty […]

Wagner Stempel Heerkretz Riesling Auslese 2017 500ml
$85.00One of the best sweet riesling Auslese wines made in Rheinhessen this century. Cool and complex with a ton of fresh-herb (mint, lemon balm and dill) aromas, as well as fresh pineapple and white peaches. Super-concentrated, but also super-elegant with a stunning interplay of fruit and minerally acidity. The sweetness lingers far in the background. […]

Carl Loewen Riesling Maximin Herrenberg Auslese Goldcap 2020
$100.00As close to perfection as you could possibly hope for. Refined, bracing Auslsen, obviously sweet, but it’s the acidity and the ‘coolness’ that’s astonishing. Elements of green snake (the lolly!), spearmint, white peach, lime, cumquat and lychee, cut through by passionfruit. Most Goldcaps are more obviously sweet and silken in texture, but the chisel here […]

Clemens Busch Marienburg Spatlese Goldcap 2020
$120.00Tons of floral honey, ripe grapefruit and candied ginger make this concentrated and succulent riesling Spätlese really stand out of the crowd in this field. So much candied citrus on the rich yet cool and refined palate. The finish is both lush and very mineral. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. […]
