Max Ferdinand Richter Graacher Dompropst Riesling Spätlese Halbtrocken 2001

Mosel, GermanyFresh slate nectarine skin with just a whiff of smoke mark the nose. Full green apple nectarine flavours with honey and more mineral flavouring in the finish. Bone dry but extremely impressive balance and weight. According to Dr. Richter, the 2001 vintage in the middle Mosel, where his family has owned vines for over 300 years, is outstanding --- to be put on a par with the fabulous 1959. We agree. Buy and hold for as long as you like. Tasted: 22 December 2002Tasted by: Prices:
