JAMES SUCKLING - 96 POINTS This very succulent Mosel Auslese is all about overripe stone fruit and has almost none of the floral honey character that comes from botryrtis. Then comes the dazzling brilliance and finesse of the long, wet-stone finish. Drink from release. Stuart Pigott.
MOSEL FINE WINES - 95 POINTS The 2023er Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese was made from partially (15-20%) botrytized grapes harvested at 98 Oechsle and was fermented down to noble-sweet levels of residual sugar (110 g/l). The wine offers a beautiful nose made of rhubarb, passion fruit, whipped cream, smoke, and minty elements. It is beautifully creamy and bright on the palate and leaves a subtly creamy feel in the long finish. This is a gorgeous expression of Auslese in the making!

HI-TIME TASTING NOTES: What a beautiful Auslese! Notice the intense flavors of apricot, papaya and mango dancing about. All the tropical fruit one could ask for in your glass. The body is seamless and pure. This is an excellent value for Auslese-level fruit.
