2015 Weingut Spreitzer Hallgartener Hendelberg Riesling Alte Reben trocken
Germany, Rheingau
The three 2015 Trockens couldn't be more different stylistically, with the Estate leaning herbal, the Muschelkak musky, and the Alte Reben more savory. The Alte Reben was my least favorite of the three. OK/Good.

2015 Weingut Spreitzer Oestricher Riesling Muschelkalk trocken
Germany, Rheingau
The three 2015 Trockens couldn't be more different stylistically, with the Estate leaning herbal, the Muschelkak musky, and the Alte Reben more savory. The Muschelkak was my favorite of the three. Very captivating nose. Ripe attack that was at once leafy, floral, and herbal. Very good.

2015 Weingut Spreitzer Riesling Estate Riesling Trocken
Germany, Rheingau
The three 2015 Trockens couldn't be more different stylistically, with the Estate leaning herbal, the Muschelkak musky, and the Alte Reben more savory. The Estate was herbal/leafy on the nose and palate. Nice richness. Good!

Very rich, ripe fruit; very good wine; piercing; the attack had me begging for the slightest bit of sugar.

Named for the college introductory class - a first lesson in Riesling, apparently. It is rich, but very very simple. Meh/OK.

Reserved nose. Round, ripe orchard and stone fruit. Lemon/lime tartness. Great balance ("sweet acid"). Very good, and my favorite of the 2015 Spreitzer lineup. Will buy.
