Spätlese

2004 Rheingau Riesling

The Schloss Vollrads Spätlese 2004 is a delightful example of the enchanting qualities found in Rheingau Rieslings. This white wine presents a medium body that harmoniously showcases its luscious character. With a noticeable high acidity, it offers a bright and mouthwatering experience that elevates its vibrant notes of stone fruit and honey. The fruit intensity is prominent, exuding aromas of ripe peaches and apricots, complemented by subtle floral undertones. The wine is elegantly off-dry, making it a wonderfully balanced choice for those who appreciate sweetness without overwhelming richness. This exceptional Spätlese captures the essence of its region, offering a pleasurable sip that reflects the renowned terroir of Rheingau.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
