Dr. Hermann - Riesling Erdener Pralat Spatlese GK Alte Reben - 2021

The 2021er Erdener Prälat Riesling Spätlese Alte Reben GK was made from a clean grape harvested at 87° Oechsle on extremely old un-grafted vines and was fermented down to sweet levels of residual sugar (70 g/l). It has a gorgeously refined and multi-layered nose of herbs, apricot, smoke, anise, Conference pear, greengage, and blueberry. The wine has a marvelous balance on the palate and combines fruity and creamy presence with animating and ripe acidity. The finish proves very pure and immensely long and smoky. The after-taste is all about smoke, spices, and even fresh elements. This is a marvelous Spätlese! 97 Points Jean Fisch and David Rayer, Mosel Fine Wines
