"Sumptuous aromatics of sweet leeks, red currants, cherries, minerals, and slate are found in the nose of the 2002 Riesling Spatlese Rudesheimer Berg Schlossberg. This fabulous Spatlese is medium-bodied, magnificently elegant, lush, sexy, exquisitely balanced, and tremendously long in the finish. Candied onions, minerals, black cherries, and gun flint can be discerned in its complex flavors."

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
A historic Riesling region along the Rhine, producing racier, often drier wines of structure and mineral depth from south-facing slopes.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
