Crunchy, light and invigorating on the palate, the 2016 Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) from Schäfer-Fröhlich shows lemon and pear, with a subtle smoky minerality that blends into a light creaminess at the back. — 8 years ago

Ripe black and red cherry, red currant, baking spice, vanilla, a touch of caramel and brown sugar. M acid. M body. Long finish. Still young but drinkable and balanced. — 9 years ago

Residual sugar is still there but solid acidity makes it not read as cloying. A touch of maybe lychee and honey. It's rounded but still glides.

Pale color. White peach, white stone, and a citrus finish. Less acidity than the 15. Nice though. — 9 years ago

2003, given time, is bound to go down in #German #wine history as one of its greatest late-harvest vintages together with 1921, 1934, 1937, 1949, 1953, 1959, 1971, 1976...a remarkable achievement that will no doubt outlive us all! #Goldkapsel — 11 years ago

Great, focused Spätburgunder rosé from the Nahe. Another solid effort from Schäfer-Frölich. Appears there's barely any skin contact; pours a very pale, bright, almost silver-y copper color. Lean 'n' mean. A bit reductive at first; splash it into a decanter a bit before serving and it'll help it blow off though. On the nose, a pile of wet, crushed stone, cranberries, slightly underripe watermelon, a slight herbaceousness and a bit of lager-y lees character. The palate is pretty congruent in term of flavor to the aromatic character, with bright, high acid and just a touch of RS to help round it off and add a little extra oomph to the fruit character. Light, lean body. Incredibly food-friendly wine. Nice companion in this 95 degree heat. — 9 years ago

The last of one of the most interesting wines I've ever tasted. Busting with zest and flavor.
