Schloss Schönborn
Berg Schlossberg Auslese Riesling
Rheingau, Germany
Riesling that is well aged and properly stored is a special treat and worth seeking out. It was Auslese but with bottle age has been mostly absorbed back into the wine. Equal joy and sadness that this was my last bottle

Dec 3rd, 2018This wine is absolutely sensational, golden yellow in color, hints of petrol, cranberry, oyster mushroom, and pecan nut, full body with Glycerine like mouthfeel, complex taste with notes of Roquefort cheese, exotic South East Asian fruits like longan and durian, over ripen pineapple and walnut, long and complex finish.

Saturated gold with orange notes; ripe pear, papaya, pineapple, cinnamon and cardamom, honey, v trace rubber and slight oxidation; unctuous and perfectly balanced med sweet, tingly acid, integrated alcohol to back it up (11.5%). Perched between young and old, bright and contemplative.
