Felseneck Spätlese Riesling 2013

I’ve enjoyed this producer for a few years (specifically the Felseneck GG) but this is my first experience with their Spatlese Riesling from 2013. Followed over two days.

Next to a ‘22 Clemens Busch Auslese and a ‘22 Kloster Eberbach Baiken Erste Lage Trocken, the richness here was Goldilocks…right down the middle. Not a dynamite vintage, yet I’ve found I traditionally enjoy the Spatlese-level and above sweet wines from cooler vintages as the acid and sweetness play nicely together. Exhibit A. Ripe nectarine and white peach aromatically but also plenty of citrus notes. Lemon-lime and limestone grit dance on the mid-palate before a mineral + honeyed profile bring about an elegantly rich profile complemented by both the classical mineral and sweet Spatlese notes. Crushable at 7.5 ABV!

Enjoyable now and I’m not sure it gets better from here, just different. Consistent over both nights.

Felsenberg Großes Gewächs Riesling 2018

Very light colored

Light bodied and has a sweetness to it that makes you wonder if this is really a dry wine.

It develops more complexity and some lime zest flavor with more airtime

Overall good but not great.

Nahe Medium-Dry Riesling 2009

Seems like old times.

This hasn’t aged really.

Nose: stone fruits.

Palate: lovely stone fruits. Still vibrant. Bravo.

Felseneck Großes Gewächs Trocken Riesling 2018

Delightful. Immediate lime zest smack in the face.

Natural sweetness that comes though it’s not oaky or residual sugar. Just a roundness to the wine that helps balance the lime.

This wine is good with Mexican and some spice.
