"Vanilla, marzipan, and candied orange rind make for a quite confectionary aromatic and palate display from Gunderlochâs 2011 Nackenheimer Rothenberg Riesling Spatlese, which boasts an almost custardy richness allied to subtle oiliness, and finishes with considerable but appealing sweetness, alkaline, ginger and smoky black tea nuances offering a welcome (indeed, in a wine that displays such softness, a vital) sense of cut and counterpoint. This captures a sense of buoyancy that couldnât be achieved in the vintageâs âJean-Baptisteâ Kabinett, and ought to prove delightful for well more than a decade."

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.
