Tasting Notes

Vinous Joel Payne - 01 Jan 09
(for 375 ml.) Pale golden yellow. Supple aromas of ripe peach, mango and acacia honey, plus a hint of brown spice botrytis. A flavor of glazed apricots and a creamy, glossy texture are infused with a sweet herbal spice. Richer and denser than the spatlese, this auslese finishes with noteworthy length.

Germany

Germany is renowned for its diverse, high-quality wines, primarily white varieties like Riesling. Thriving in cool climates and regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz, German Rieslings range from dry to sweet, showcasing vibrant acidity and minerality. Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
