2004 Müller-Catoir Gimmeldinger Schlössel Rieslaner Spätlese - Germany, Pfalz (7/3/2009)
This is a truly outstanding riesling. Balanced palate with honey, pear, citrus, tart apple, light and not oppressive minerality, and an appropriate level of acidity. Color light. Finish moderate. The palate is strong. The minerality is interesting, almost like slate, but not quite. Alcohol is 10.5% and I like that - no stress from it and completely unnoticed.The mouth feel has a bit of creaminess to it and the wine feels a bit thicker than water in the mouth, but not syrupy. (92 pts.)
