Dönnhoff Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spätlese 1998

Dönnhoff Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spätlese 1998: A lemon-gold colour with a hint of green, and quite a few bubbles adherent to the glass thanks to some residual carbon dioxide. The nose carries rich, honey and oatmeal tinged aromas alongside the lime fruit. Richly textured, with lovely weight, buoyed up by brilliant acidity, the barest tingle from the residual gas and a fresh peach and citrus fruit flavour. Beautifully balanced, this wine will surely go the distance. 17.5+/20 AP Nr: 7 753 01 011 99 (22/7/02)
