K.H. Schneider
Königsfels Riesling
Superb nose of tangerine, tangelo, slate and gorgeous minerals. Red grapefruit and barely ripe apricot. Wow. So focused and vivid. Palate is crunchy and chock full of minerals and so long. What a wine. Super clear and wonderful stone fruit and citrus on the palate. Love this new GG from Andi. Great acid and density and so playful as well. Nahe in Mosel clothes.

Jan 2nd, 2023The 19 is even better than the 18. Wow. Sick nose. Citrus oil, white cherries, minerals and super clean but also a bit reticent. I know this will open as some 19’s need 45 to 60 minutes for the aromatics to really shine. Some vulcanized rubber starts to show and intense slate. Stunning depth to these 19’s. Also some lemon oil starts to seep through. Wow, what a palate. Just insane energy and excitement. So pure and compact. Clean and fresh. The freshness of the 19’s is remarkable. What persistence and super clean minerality. Dazzling purity. Man that length. A super star. Superb mineral perfume accented by white flowers now. Confectionary aromas. Just brilliant. Just so complete and seamless. No flaws except it’s 5 years too young. Nose has a nice lemongrass aroma now. This has superb structure and such clarity. One of the best Schneiders ever. Might be 9.7 with air.
