WTN: 2014 Donnhoff Kirschheck Spatlese

2014 Dönnhoff Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spätlese - Germany, Nahe (3/11/2016)
Served with low spice Chinese food, this was drinking very well in the classic Kirschheck cherry and peach skin way, though drier than many recent vintages, which allowed for more flavor nuance on the palate. It was more than just a sugar bomb Spatlese, and showed as a much more lively and ethereal wine than it has for many vintages. Lots of fun to drink now, and with the balance tipped to slightly drier I think it can be drunk with much more enjoyment at the table in its youth.
