justerini & brooks tasting note

Delicately complex with a teasing inviting bouquet of minerals and fresh cool fruits. Precise and vital on the palate, long and finessed and so refreshing! As is often the case, this is a sweet wine that will leave you reaching for a second glass.

critic reviews

96/100Anne Krebiehl,Vinous

The 2023 Riesling Graacher Himmelreich Auslese, made virtually without botrytis from fully ripe grapes, offers a shy tone of stone and yeast. The palate features Mirabelle jelly with lovely overtones of lemon balm and fern, wonderfully cut by freshness with a pithy, zesty edge of lime and mainly pale lemon. The finish resembles lemon and yellow plum sorbet, exquisitely fresh and palate-cleansing, yet with exquisite sweetness. Incredibly fine, slender and so balanced.

96/100Stephan Reinhardt,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2023 Graacher Himmelreich Auslese is very clear and precise on the elegant and delicate nose that reveals mango and other tropical as well as ripe peach aromas. Savory and crystalline on the palate, this Himmelreich Auslese is highly stimulating in all its finessed juiciness, grip and salivating salinity. The finish is long, playful and irresistible. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 11 24 in January 2025.
