"The 2001 Riesling Auslese Norheimer Dellchen exhibits aromas reminiscent of spicy onions and minerals. Candied red berries (always a sign of superb ripeness when found in a Riesling), stones, and chamomile can be discerned in this medium to full-bodied offering's lush, intricate character. This muscular, velvety-textured wine regales the palate with persistent waves of fruit whose flavors linger in its exceptional finish."

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.
