Dr. Loosen Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese 2009
Mosel, GermanyThe Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese is left about 10 days longer on the vine and the result is a studier wine that is as masculine as it gets in this super elegant theatre of vines known as the Mosel. Stone fruit and dried apricot aromas and flavours mark the palate of this delicious, juicy, mineral laden riesling made from two vineyard parcels averaging 89 through 100 years old and two parcels of 25 year old vine. You can easily cellar this for a decade and beyond.Tasted: 07 October 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $36.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
