2023 Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spatlese FeinherbAP 11 Fuder Meyer NepalHofgut Falkenstein 96 pts Mosel Fine Wine The 2023er Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spätlese Feinherb Meyer Nepal (the reference to this internal cask name is provided in small print on the label after the AP number) comes from vines planted in the 1950s in the upper part of the vineyard and was fermented to off-dry levels of residual sugar. This offers a stunning nose of bergamot, mint, pineapple, lemon sorbet, and spices. The wine is stunningly precise on the palate where the ripe zesty side is superbly well wrapped into racy elements. The wine is long, ethereally light, yet packed with flavors. This is a modernday classic in the making! 2038-2048 Lars Carlberg, Hofgut Falkenstein (1/28/24): "minty, limey, citrusy, and icy"
