"Sun-drenched yellow-cherry and apricot notes extend from nose to palate in this deeply concentrated yet fresh-fruited spätlese. Zippy and spry, it pulsates with rich, ripe peach and tangerine flavors as well as a smoky, lingering finish. This decadent medium-sweet wine is drinking beautifully now but should hold through 2030. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Spicy aroma, dried lemon peel and caraway with peppery-slate spicy notes. Fresh and juicy opening on the palate, with striking acidity and a restrained sweetness, salty motifs, playfulness and tactile minerality. An almost dry elegance."

"The nose is demure here, suggesting more mineral and earth than obvious fruit. But the palate surprises with heaving layers of juicy white-grapefruit, peach and apple flavors. It's delightfully zesty and spry, balancing sweet against tart and lingering on a cool steely tang. Enjoy now?2035. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Luxurious guava, grapefruit and red berry aromas perfum this intensely fruity, sun-kissed spätlese. It's wispy and spry on the palate but penetrating acidity guides a long brambly finish. Approachable already but structured enough to stay pristine well through 2025."

"Veins of crushed slate and spice lend complexity to this spine-tingling wine. Fresh, sweet tangerine and stone-fruit flavors are concentrated yet pristine, bolstered by streaks of lemon and grapefruit acidity. The finish meanders long, nuanced by hints of bramble and earth."

"Touches of exotic spice and crushed minerals lend complexity to sun-kissed peach and melon flavors in this medium-sweet Riesling. It's punchy and spry, full of high-toned acidity and lift, but finishes long, lean and elegant. It's youthful and exuberant now, but should continue to meld beautifully through at least 2027."

"A whiff of saffron lends a savory tone to this flirtatiously floral spätlese. It's radiant with lemon-lime acidity, yet plump with sweet stone-fruit flavors. A murmur of bitter citrus pith adds complexity and vibe."

"Smoke and dusty earth notes waft from this semi-sweet Riesling, adding a mineral tone to luscious yellow peach and cherry flavors on the palate. While satisfyingly juicy, it's brisk and sprightly in mouthfeel, with an energetic streak of lemon-lime acidity on the finish."

"Loosen's 2009 spätlese from the Wehlener Sonnenuhr is a lush, medium-bodied wine loaded with honey and peaches. It's superripe and succulent, with a long, fruity finish. Try it with Szechuan dishes, which will buffer the sweetness of the wine while the wine tames some of the heat."

"A pure expression of Mosel Riesling, with touches of flowershop greens, apple and lime. It's sweet but amply structured, with a core of crisp, juicy fruit and a long finish that echoes hints of honey and slate."

"Despite plenty of honeyed sweetness, this wine's slate-driven minerality and zesty acids and slight touch of CO2 keep it nicely balanced. It's light in body, with crisp lime flavors, making it a great candidate for sipping during the dog days of summer."

"(2006) Creamy apricot fruit on the nose, with a touch of nut kernel and a little herbal note. Lovely peachy, stone fruit flavours. The palate has a lovely perfumed, peach skin quality with very ripe, sweet, refined fruit, and a real depth of flavour to this wine. Deliciously tangy orangy acidity in a very moreish, beautifully poised finish."

"Features apple, pear and citrus flavors on a lithe, sweet frame. It would score higher, but for a slight note of grapefruit-pith bitterness on the honey-laden finish. Imported by Loosen Bros. USA."
