"The 2004 Schlossbockelheimer Felsenberg Riesling Auslese smells of peonies, quince, mint, distilled purple and black fruits, and pungent brown spices. Spice-, flower- and berry liqueur-laced pear and quince preserves inform an intensely rich yet impeccably balanced and refined palate. The finish really whips up the flowers, berries and spices and suggests that these are early days for trying to capture the quality of this wine with my poor words, to say nothing of numbers."

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 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.
