Künstler?

Weiser-Künstler Enkircher Ellergrub Riesling Spätlese 2008


There seem to be quite a few German wines that bear the name Künstler. Artist. In Holland it's become almost a dirty word, if we were te believe Geert Wilders, all artists are just a bunch of sponging layabouts. Anyway having not blogged for a few weeks, I feel I really need to indulge my true left wing hobby... sniffing into wine glasses. And what better than to indulge in a great Mosel Riesling. Weiser Künstler is the producer of this truly wonderful Spätlese. To be drunk by wise artists...
Explosive nose with honeydew melon, pineapple, and lemon zest. Wonderfully summery and tropical. On the palate the balance is extraordinary with added minerality and spiciness. Clean and long. Gorgeous.
Sourced from Rieslinghuis
