Store review: The late harvested Spatlese wines are medium bodied but still very flowery, with good aging potential. This Goldtropfchen Spatlese is very fresh with a nice tropical fruit flavor balanced with the acidity. This wine has good potential for aging at least 8 years.
My review: This wine was the Vintage Cellar's featured wine for the day and understandably so. The grapes for this wine are picked from a steep hillside that requires the pickers to use harnesses and rappelling equipment to harvest them. It was a really sweet and fruity wine. I thought it was delicious and would definitely recommend it.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
