Graacher Himmelreich Riesling - Spätlese

1998 Mosel Saar Ruwer Riesling

The Weingut Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling - Spätlese from the legendary Mosel Saar Ruwer region is a stunning example of what old-vine Riesling can achieve. This white wine captivates with its vibrant character, showcasing a medium body that balances richness with elegance. Its high acidity brings a bright, mouthwatering quality, inviting each sip with refreshing notes. The fruit intensity is pronounced, delivering a delightful array of stone fruits, citrus, and hints of honeyed sweetness. With a subtle residual sweetness, this wine is delicately off-dry, making it incredibly versatile for pairing with a variety of foods or simply enjoying on its own. The aging potential of this vintage is remarkable, offering a harmonious experience that reflects its premium terroir and meticulous winemaking practices.
