The 2015 Bernkasteler Badstube Auslese is very clear, fresh, cool and aromatic, characterized by its ripe and intense fruit aromas, as well as its blue slate flavors. Sweet, dense, lush and piquant, this Riesling has a lovely juiciness and mineral backbone. This is a very intense, but vital and gorgeously succulent Auslese that is great fun to drink, even today. The finish is clear, firm, piquant and salty, indicating a serious, long distance-running Riesling. -Stephan Reinhardt
