“The 2021er Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese has a beautifully complex and pure nose of lime tree, verbena, orange blossom, anise, smoke, cassis, jasmine, and white peach.

This splendidly pure Spätlese has great energy! 2031-2051” 95 points, Jean Fisch and David Rayer, Mosel Fine Wines

Smokey, herbal, mushroom compost, white peach, gardenia, lime zest, lime, blackcurrant and cherry. Broad shouldered and rich with the most complex fruit profile of all wines tasted. Red fruits, blueberry, blackcurrant, yellow […]
Read moreAlea holds some additional sweetness as its canon. There’s an appealing and ultra-high drinkability here. Charm in spades. Floral scents of frangipani and lemon blossom with candied ginger, lime juice, just-ripe pineapple and tonic water. Similar to taste with a slipperiness to texture that feels well metered by the building crispness of the finish. More […]
