Country: Germany / Bernkasteler alte Badstube am Doctorberg Dry
Variety: Riesling Mosel
Winery: Dr. Pauly Bergweiler /
Stone, smoke and mineral oil aromas juxtapose deeply concentrated flavors of peach, tangerine and quince on the palate of this deftly balanced Riesling. While dry in style, it’s lusciously mouth-filling, suggesting swirls of honey and citrus. A long, steel-touched finish dries everything up nicely. It’s lovely now but should continue to improve through 2022 and likely beyond.
