Here it is! One of the two #EmrichSchönleber #GrossesGewächs wines we released this month. A wine of tremendous finesse and complexity that is the more feminine in style of this fantastic winery's two main sites. The 2014s are very nicely structured and so crystal clear. They will benefit greatly from further bottle age and decanting prior to serving. #Frühlingsplätzchen #Riesling #GG #trocken #dry #Nahe — 8 years ago
Rich, corpulent, plush...yet taut and electric. Cherries, yellow fruits. Powerful and typical Nahe minerality. Exuberant and refined at the same time. One of the best '15s I've tasted. #nahe #emrichschönleber #riesling — 8 years ago
Named after the cranes which migrate south annually and hover above these vineyards to catch the upward currents on warm afternoons. Previously named the #Halenberg #Riesling #trocken, this wine actually comes from a steep upper portion of the "#Halenberg" vineyard and tends to be very #mineral in character, due to the great amount of gray #slate in the soil. A pure, mineral, beautifully crafted dry Riesling. #EmrichSchönleber #Halgans #Riesling #trocken — 8 years ago
#Riesling from our #Schönleber friends... off-dry but with such pronounced acidity profile the overall impression is much drier... #mineral notes abound...another crystal clear vibrant beauty! #EmrichSchönleber #2013 #Lenz #Nahe — 9 years ago
Here's the Big Daddy of the #EmrichSchönleber estate and as one taster recently commented..."like liquid rocks" due to the high #slate content in the vineyard, which gives the wine its distinctive #mineral character. Again, this wine will benefit tremendously from not only further bottle aging, but also decanting or even double decanting prior to serving. #Halenberg #Riesling #GrossesGewächs #dry #trocken #Nahe

Derived from younger vines of the greater "#Halenberg"
vineyard and drinking perfectly after a couple of years in bottle! #EmrichSchönleber #Mineral #Riesling #trocken — 8 years ago
Huge fruit! Lighter-bodied than one might expect of an #Auslese *** - elegant, balanced, stunning. #EmrichSchönleber just doesn't disappoint. #2003 #Frühlingsplätzchen #Riesling #Auction — 9 years ago

Wet stones & cherries. Big- framed. Still very primary; has a long road ahead. Impressive and powerful, though. #nahe #riesling #emrichschönleber — 7 years ago
