Weiser-KünstlerRiesling Ellergrub Kabinett 2022 (750ml)

The 2021er Enkircher Ellergrub Riesling Kabinett was made from fruit harvested at 82° Oechsle on largely un-grafted vines still trained on single pole and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (50 g/l). It offers a superbly refined and gorgeously complex nose of yellow peach, fine herbs, lozenge, blackberry, prune, and spices. The wine is superbly playful and animating on the palate, where some delicate yellow and riper fruits interplay with zesty acidity. The latter comes really through in the very long and beautifully chiseled finish. The after-taste is already more off-dry than fully fruity-styled and makes one want to go for more.
