1999er Meddersheimer Altenberg Spatlese

1999 Nahe Riesling

The Weingut Helmut Hexamer 1999er Meddersheimer Altenberg Spätlese is a stunning representation of Nahe's exquisite terroir, showcasing the artistry of Riesling. This white wine reveals a golden hue, hinting at its rich complexity developed over years of aging. The body is full, offering a beautifully rounded mouthfeel that glides effortlessly across the palate. Its acidity is pronounced, providing a bright and lively character that dances in harmony with the fruity notes. Expect an intensity of fruit that is both prominent and vibrant, with layers of honeyed stone fruits and zesty citrus, underscored by delicate floral undertones. The residual sugar balances the wine, creating an off-dry finish that complements its overall elegance. This Riesling is not only a treasure from the memorable 1999 vintage but also a testament to the unique attributes of the Meddersheimer Altenberg vineyard, making it a delightful choice for any wine enthusiast.
