Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle, Riesling, Auslese, Goldkapsel, 2020

The excitement with which we greet some lovely botrytised notes speaks to the rarity of noble sweet wines in this vintage. Composed, silky and calming, the Auslese Gk is a model of, dare we say it, perfection. So smooth and complex and yet lifted and juicy with concentrated acids and minerals, fruits and flowers. Gorgeous.
