reminiscent of black cherries

and full-bodied

the wine shows great finesse and balance with notes of papaya and pear rounded out with hints of hazelnuts

It tapers off with medium length and is nicely refreshing as a subtle twang of candied citrus lingers

Weingut Carl Loewen Thornicher Ritsch Riesling Auslese, Mosel, Germany 2018 Marsannay reminiscent of black cherriesSuper fine and fresh for an Auslese with dainty flavors of rose apples and rose water, colored by bright dried lemons and limes. The medium sweetness, though perceptible and deep, is hardly a factor in this wine, as its threaded surreptitiously through racy acidity and a bright, lemon pith texture. 96 Pts James Suckling
