Robert Parker

“Grown on the coolest side of the valley, right next to the estate, this 2014 Wehlener Klosterberg Spätlese Riesling offers a clean and precise nose, with primary notes of green apple, Riesling berry, and lemon. It exhibits the style of an ice wine with all its elegance, finesse, and precision. The finish is spicy, briny, and very clean—a superb balance between minerality and salinity.” (Wine Advocate 2016 – Stephan Reinhardt) A true expression of the terroir!
