Weingart Riesling

點擊次數(shù)：2397

Black tea, orange, and buddleia mark the nose of Weingart’s generic 2007 Riesling, made-up mostly of Furstenberg, but discreetly incorporating around 15% Auslese from the Hamm vineyards. Polished and both subtly creamy and sweet, this displays simple yet striking purity of a few elements all the way through its satisfyingly juicy, wet stone-tinged finish. It should remain delightful for at least 6-8 years. Florian Weingart’s reputation continues to mount, but he remains always the self-effacing and astute observer of wine, very much including his own. Given the amount of nobly sweet wine produced here in 2006 and the sometimes problematic quality of the botrytis that appeared this year, the estate essayed little in that genre this year, much of which moreover ended up as blending material.Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.
