Weingut Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spatlese 5, Mosel, Germany 2022 Meaty and Oily Fish Med+ tanninsThis has a wicked reductive edge now, so either dont touch this for a long time, or let it open up in the glass (or, yes, decanter!). When it does finally give way, soak up the amazing, stoney nuances, freshly squeezed Japanese plums and Korean pears. Medium bodied and tightly constructed on the palate, bound by a flinty texture with pointed acidity and crunchy lemon zest. Medium long on the finish. 94 Pts James Suckling
