Moderately sweet. Hints of apricots. Very nice, and reasonably priced. Tasted October 2012.
Much sweeter than I expected for a Spatlese, but excellent wine with a great depth and finish. Tasted March 2013.
This wine hits all the right notes but somehow disappoints. Don't get me wrong, it's a tasty wine, but it's just a little too sweet and just a little too light on acidity to back up the sweetness. The Schloss Reinhartshausen Erbacher Schlossberg Riesling Spätlese 2005 is a much better value for my money. Tasted October 2012.
Pleaseantly enjoy this ripe fruit aromatic Riesling with a Spicey Thai dish. This wine has a medium plus body with a mandarin, asian pear and pineapple flavour on the palate. Medium minus acidity has just enough to spark the tastebuds to enhance the flavours to lengthy finsih. Tasted November 2012
