95 WA "The 2003 Riesling Spatlese Graacher Domprobst #10 reveals aromas reminiscent of talcum powder-dusted flowers immersed in perfume. A wine of immense sensuality, it seduces the taster with a rich, voluminous character that is packed with red berries and minerals. While medium to full-bodied and broad, this offering is also highly detailed, pure, and exceptionally long . . . . Bravo to Willi Schaefer for having crafted such beauties!
