2015 Weingut Battenfeld-Spanier Höhen-Sülzener Prime Riesling Trocken
88 points
Bottled just recently. It was very fresh and youthful but you could see where this is going to be in a couple of months. Great basic level (VDP.Gutswein) riesling! Wild herbs, floral in the nose, good minerality.

Very nice! Amazing how much aroma you could get from a pinot blanc. Full of fruit, smooth and creamy with hints of anise and chocolate.

Deep purple in color but mediocre in taste, hollow fruit no length.
