Emrich-Schönleber Description
This is the earlier picking/younger-vine selection from the Grand Cru Frühlingsplätzchen. For those of you twisted enough to understand German wine law and the VDP, this would be the estate’s “Spätlese Trocken” if they were allowed to label it as such.
As with the Grand Cru, the wine is delicate, finessed, very mineral and herbal – it drinks perhaps younger than the denser wines of the Halenberg. It is also not a wine to underestimate. This is a wine that one can cellar and with 5-10+ years it shows the depth of its material.
James Suckling
Complex and expressive, but also packed with a wide spectrum of citrus fruit and just a touch of papayas. This emphatically dry Nahe riesling is concentrated and focused, with terrific stony and dried herb complexity in the long, compact finish.
