The 2015 Riesling Bernkasteler Badstube Auslese ** (Green Capsule) is clear, bright, fresh and flinty on the precise, cool and aromatic nose. The attack on the palate is fresh and piquant before the pure and crystalline texture with all its salts take over the regiment and carries this gorgeous, highly elegant and finessed Auslese into a very long and juicy, in fact endless finish. This is power mixed with purity, finesse and elegance. Great aging potential. - Stephan Reinhardt

This gorgeous Mosel Riesling explodes aromatically with a mineral-driven nose of flint and chalk as well as a fruit medley of lemon-lime, pineapple, apples and white raspberries. The wine’s mineral and fruit profile is complemented by tinges of fresh-cut herbs and a spring flower bouquet. On the palate the wine has a kiss of sweetness but it is restrained and wonderfully balanced. All elements from the nose come across smoothly, and this Auslese delivers on a pleasant, long, mineral and acid-driven finish that will leave your mouth watering for the next sip. Drink this anytime over the next 15+ years.
