2021 Loersch Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling Spätlese Alte Reben - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (1/16/2023)
Sampled over two nights, this is classic Mosel Spätlese with plenty of zing to balance it’s healthy dose of residual sugar. It’s lovely to drink a Spätlese that is not about peaches and pineapple, but one that features lime, green apple, mint and ginger. There’s a little bit of Willi Schaefer elegance transported to Trittenheim. Fresh and very drinkable, this reminds me a lot of the 2012s when they came out. Drink now for fun, but there is plenty here for a long journey.
