Spätlese

2013 Rheinhessen White Blend

Josef Drathen Spätlese, a charming white blend from the esteemed Rheinhessen region, embodies the essence of German winemaking with its delightful balance and complexity. This 2013 vintage showcases a medium body, complemented by a bright acidity that invigorates the palate and enhances the wine's freshness. On the nose, you will find prominent fruit intensity, with lovely aromas of ripe stone fruits and hints of floral notes, inviting you into its enticing profile. The wine is remarkably dry, making it an appealing choice for those who favor a crisp, refreshing experience. Its soft, subtle tannins provide just enough structure to elevate the wine without overshadowing its delightful fruity character, making it an excellent pairing for light dishes or enjoyed on its own.

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).
