The 2015 Graacher Himmelreich Spätlese from Willi Schaefer is absolutely sublime. This gorgeous wines opens to striking aromas of lime, white peach, quince, fresh blossoms, green tea and minerals, which all come together beautifully and soar from the glass. This is beautifully textured with remarkable balance and a wonderful core of acidity. The delicious flavors continue to resonate on the palate as it picks up some dusty notes before making its way into the bright, vibrant finish, which leaves your palate salivating for more. Outstanding today, but will also be one you want to keep around for a while in the cellar. (Best 2018-2034) - January, 2017 (JD)
