Wine Ratings & Descriptions

|
Value Grade: A
One of the greatest of German estates and thus a remarkable value. The significant residual sugar is completely balanced by the ripping acidity.
Food Friendliness Grade: A
Spicy foods, rich foods, seafoods, shellfish, grilled fish, many Thai and Vietnamese dishes, and a few million other things.
Ability to Age Grade: A
Brilliant acidity and impeccable fruit equal wine with a very long-lived potential. You can drink it now or over the next few decades.
Flavor Profile Grade: A
There's great strength in this wine, yet it drinks like an adult soda pop. The earthy character of the brilliant vineyard source is just starting to show, so if you seek complexity, it's in this bottle in spades. But if you just want a drink, this is completely delicious.
