I love the way the tropical fruit extravagance of this wine is married to a dangerously refreshing acidity that lifts this remarkable Spatlese up into the upper stratosphere. Staggering ripeness, delicacy and purity right through the totally uplifting finish that makes you charge back for more!

The 2022 Riesling Kiedricher Gräfenberg Spätlese shows restrained greengage and Reine Claude plum. The vivid aroma of these stone fruits is delineated on the palate, boosted by residual sweetness like sorbet made from the fruit, melting on the palate and releasing its aroma moment by moment, reaching a peak of creamy peach ice cream, always tempered by vivid freshness and a tangy citrus edge. Just so elegant, so zesty, so beautiful, so balanced. Squeaky clean, elegant, striking and delicious. (Sweet)

The 2022 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Spätlese is clear, fine, fresh and iodine-inflected on the nose that is precise and complex, even with more phyllite (and tea) notes than the rich (but dry) GG. However, the palate is really rich in terms of texture, but it is firmly structured and nicely drying on the saline, savory, oh-so-tensioned finish. This is a superb Spätlese with great aging potential. 9% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in August 2023.

Attractive flavors of jellied citrus, guava, ripe apricot and quince mark this exuberant, open-knit version. It shows great energy and cut, which keep it well defined through the lingering aftertaste.
