RATINGS

**IWC - David Schildknecht

...spicy but relatively demure nose at the moment. Then it explodes on the palate and really grips, with smoky, spicy phenolics and minerality gyrating around a rich core of pit fruits and citrus. Endless, spicy, minerally, pungent length.

97+ Robert M. Parker Jr.

...conquers the taster with ethereal waves of black currants, apples, minerals, baby powder, and pears. Satin-textured, as pure as crystal, and lasting over a minute on the palate, it is a masterpiece...

97The Wine Advocate

...extraordinary, hovering in that zone bordering perfection in which wines touch the soul. Medium-bodied and revealing scents reminiscent of sweet scallions, cassis, spices, and fresh herbs...conquers the taster with ethereal waves...

90Wine Spectator

Delicate and supple, with an underlying verve and live-wire intensity, this '02 Riesling delivers apple, peach and mineral notes on a lightweight frame.

This white variety originated in Germany. It’s known for its strong flowery aromas and high acidity. Please note Rieslings can have dramatic differences as the grape can be used to make dry, semi-sweet, sweet and sparkling wines.
