White peach, honeydew melon, fresh orange, rowan, chamomile, iris, almond extract and cooling yet invigorating herbal aromas rise from the glass of 2007 Dorsheimer Goldloch Riesling Spatlese, which offers comparably diverse generosity, polish, refinement, and soothing richness that seduce the palate, leading to a finish in which citrus zest and alkaline mineral notes add counterpoint to sweet orchard fruits and liquid flowers. Enjoy this beauty over the next quarter-century.
With the 2007 vintage – one Armin Diel compares with his superbly successful 2004s – daughter Caroline Diel has joined Christoph Friedrich in guiding vineyard and cellar operations here. (The 2008 vintage sees her in the estate’s leading role.)
