James Suckling

The most amazing thing about this very concentrated, full-bodied dry riesling is the tingling freshness that lifts the very long finish. That’s extraordinary when you consider the ripe mangosteen fruit on the nose and at the front of the palate. And the enormous density of the midpalate. Great aging potential. Drink or hold.
