Description

Notes
"The Bockstein Spatlese shares a broad range of floral and spicy flavors, accompanied by multiple hints of pears, Golden Delicious apples, ripe peaches and apricots. As usual, the significant and almost salty minerality joins this complex and round body, while the mature acidity structure keeps it fresh and elegant. The ageing potential covers several years to even decades, wherefore Bockstein Spatlese can now be enjoyed as appetizer or later in accompaniment to dishes like exotic Asian curries, semi-solid cheeses or fruit desserts." —winemaker

Critical Acclaim
"There’s an attractive, reductive and flinty edge here that holds fresh citrus fruit in good stead. The palate has a succulent, juicy and attractively fleshy feel with a wealth of ripe peaches and nectarines. Smooth and delicious. Drink now." —James Suckling "A penetratingly pungent combination of mint, cilantro, cress and orange blossom is accompanied by prickly hints of reduction, which, however, conveys some invigoration on both nose and palate. And although this Kabinett – in contrast with the corresponding Goldtröpfchen – harbors a mere 8% alcohol, there is considerable acidity to balance out its high residual sugar, if with a somewhat sweet-sour upshot. The feel is polished, and a sense of buoyancy and a mouthwatering lick of salinity accompany floral perfume, herbal pungency and bright lime and apple juiciness on the finish. When this settles down in bottle, it may prove yet more impressive." —Vinous "An elegant version, with elderflower, white raspberry and candied orange notes, underscored by prominent minerality and vibrant acidity. Shows lots of energy. Very pretty now, but will be better in a few years. Best from 2021 through 2029. 1,500 cases made, 800 cases imported." —Wine Spectator
