Robert Parker Wine Advocate Stephan Reinhardt - 25 Aug 22
The 2021 Niederberg Helden Auslese is based on healthy fruit with just a tiny bit of botrytis berries. The nose is clear and very delicate but also intense. Light and very delicate on the palate, with fascinating purity and salinity, this is a weightless Auslese with stimulating lemon bitters on the finish. It's highly digestible if you don't fear high acidity levels. 7% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022.
Drinking Date: 2022 - 2060

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.
