Schloss Johannisberg, Riesling Auslese Rosalack other_regions_australia Smoke and vanilla frame huge

Smoke and vanilla frame huge blackberry and cassis fruit on the nose

Clapes 2005 Cornas sports a still youthful ruby color to go with lots of crushed rock-like minerality

It is the kind of wine with so much energy it practically does pirouettes on your palate

This is definitely atypical but the intrinsic class of a fine Caillerets is still present

this is a serious buy

Schloss Johannisberg, Riesling Auslese Rosalack other_regions_australia Smoke and vanilla frame hugeThe 2019 Riesling Auslese Rosalack shows an intense white golden color and offers a concentrated and spicy flinty stone fruit bouquet with coolish, crystalline terroir aromas. Dense and lush on the palate, this textured and generous Auslese develops good density and a sustainable finish. The acidity is fine and well integrated into rich and juicy fruit. Pretty sweet but also piquant. 8% alcohol. Tasted at Schloss Gobelsburg in July 2021.
