Spätlese means late harvest in winemaking terms. Late harvested grapes are used to produce wines that ranges from dry to sweet. The 8.5% alcohol by volume is a clue that this beauty leans to the sweeter side of that scale, but as indicated in the rave reviews below, sweet is relative in Rieslings - relative to acid, relative flavor & richness, this wine has it all!
"A lot of brilliance here and a superb vintage again; tautly floral-funky (hyacinth, fading peony, white iris) and almost peppery; a wonderful wash of balsam-soaked mineral; also very much dry-ish. AN INSANE VALUE! Terry Theise"
“Straight from its beautiful slate riesling scent, this delivers power and grace. There’s a floral aspect, like sushi rice—or cloudy sake—to highlight the pear and orchard-fruit flavors in the middle, lengthening out to lemon oil and lime zest in the end. All knotted up in its youth, this wine shows its stamina, holding fresh for days after its been opened.” - 94 Points, Wine & Spirits
“Johannes Selbach, this estate’s winemaker and director is on fire. His wines are top flight and yet his winemaking appears to be improving with each vintage. Readers should note that Selbach’s wines typically appear substantially better after a few years of cellaring.” – Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate
