A Rieslingfeier of our Own; 2/13/2017-2/18/2017 (Traben-Trarbach, Germany): This is one of the best 2014 Spätlese I have tasted. It is so gentle but powerful at the same time. You have to look for all the elements of a great Spätlese but they are all there. Enjoyable viscerally and intellectually, this is one of those magical wines that you can enjoy however you like. Delicious now, but I worry slightly that with more age, the more foregrounded elements mught fade a bit.

Great richness of fruit, lovely depth, floral notes. Lifted and fresh on the palate with lots of energy and a herbal note adding complexity. Long and lingering. 91-92+
