"The 2020er Niedermenniger Sonnenberg Riesling Spätlese Alte Reben was made from fruit picked at 84° Oechsle in the Kleinschock sector of the vineyard and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (58 g/l). It offers a quite aromatic and smoky nose of fresh pineapple, rich herbs, citrusy fruits, anise, yellow peach, and lavender. The wine is initially rather supple and juicy on the palate, yet the acidity brings freshness and liveliness to the flavors and focus to the finish. The aftertaste is all about lime and herbs. It will take a few years of bottle aging to fully harmonize but prove then a cracking, zest-driven Spätlese. 2027-2040" (Jean Fisch und David Rayer in Mosel Fine wines 57)
