Description

2018 Eva Fricke Riesling 'Lorcher Schlossberg' Spätlese, Rheingau"The 2018 Lorcher Schlossberg Riesling Sptlese is coolish, precise and flinty on the more reductive and lime scented nose than its Klosterberg sibling.

There are 90 grams of residual sugar, but there is nothing left but gorgeously ripe Riesling fruit from rocky slate. A fabulous Sptlese bottled
