Weingut Dr. Hermann, Erdener Herzlei Spatlese GoldKapsel Alte Reben 2020 (1x75cl)

The 2020 Erdener Herzlei Riesling Spätlese Alte Reben (Gold Capsule) comes from vines up to 127 years old that are trained on single poles and planted in blue and gray slate inside the Treppchen on the border to the Prälat. Opening with a deep, intensely aromatic yet also pure, refined and flinty-mineral bouquet of crushed stones, this is a pure, intense, complex, refreshing, mineral and thoroughly salty, tensioned and excitingly sustainable Riesling from a spectacular, steep vineyard that hosts Christian Hermann’s oldest vines. The finish is tight but also sensual and indicates a great, immortal Spätlese from one of the Mosel’s finest vineyards. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted from AP 09 21 in November 2021.
