WTN: Dragonstone Eiswein

by David M. Bueker » Sun May 02, 2021 6:38 pm

  • 2000 Weingut Josef Leitz Rüdesheimer Drachenstein Riesling Eiswein - Germany, Rheingau (5/2/2021)
    21 year old Eiswein from an indifferent vintage? What could go wrong? The answer is nothing, as this was full of ripe, tropical fruit, blazing acidity, then a little touch of lactic, like licking a creamsicle. If you have a bottle there is no worry. This has decades of life.
