Schloss Lieser Thomas Haag Niederberg Helden Riesling Spätlese 2023

"Cool and minty but also juicy and well structured, this is a beautiful Mosel riesling Spatlese. It has some natural grape sweetness, but the freshness is fantastic, and this keeps it barely medium-bodied. I love the slatey energy in the long, polished finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold." - James Suckling 7.5% ABV.

The 2023 Riesling Lieserer Niederberg Helden Spätlese unites its slaty verve with freshly cut Granny Smith apple peel and a spin of passionfruit. The palate is exquisitely light and expressive, with the passionfruit frisson adding tart allure to ripe, creamy lemon notes. Wonderful ease and total articulation make this an agile, elegant and simply superb Spätlese.
