Tasting Note

From the top of the Eisendell – at the edge of the forest – Hexamer’s 2009 Meddersheimer Rheingrafenberg Riesling Spatl... (more...)ese One Star is overtly sweet, but along with that goes a reinforcement of ripe nectarine, pear, and papaya fruit and of lily-like inner-mouth perfume, as well as a near-weightless sense of delicacy, all projected on a palate of seductively creamy texture. Hints of peat and salt add counterpoint to a lusciously lingering, refreshingly stimulating finish. This beauty ought to be worth following for the better part of two decades.
