Riesling-Auslese-#12-2003 Graach Himmelreich Willi Schaefer (Mosel)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2003 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese 12, Willi Schaefer

Produced from fruit harvested after the region’s first late-October freeze, the 2003 Riesling Auslese Graacher Himmelreich A.P. #1204 displays a sweet, botrytis-laced nose and a personality that reveals a mini-Eiswein’s focus and delineation. Powerful, deep, and with cutting precision, it releases sweet and sour flavors of minerals as well as hints of passion fruit. Projected maturity: 2009-2030. Bravo to Willi Schaefer for having crafted such beauties! - Pierre Rovani, Dez. 2004
