Weingut Kees-Kieren, Erdener Treppchen Riesling Spatlese, Mosel

A very very pale lemon gold. Glorious nose that's fresh and rich at the same time, with lots of green apples and peaches backed up by a touch of wet slate and the merest hints of mineral-petrol notes. Very fresh and zingy on the attack with a bit of sherbert. The sugar then kicks in and it's got a lovely and balanced, just-sweet body. Then some acidity kicks in towards the finish, but then it's sweet and elegant again afterwards. …
