Schloss Johannisberg Grünlack Riesling Spätlese is a highly regarded German wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Riesling grape variety. This Spätlese, meaning "late harvest," indicates that the grapes were picked later in the season, resulting in a wine with a higher level of sweetness. On the nose, this wine offers enticing aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and honey, accompanied by delicate floral notes. The palate is rich and luscious, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. Flavors of tropical fruits, citrus, and a hint of minerality unfold, creating a complex and harmonious taste profile. The Grünlack vineyard, where the grapes for this wine are grown, is located in the Rheingau region of Germany. The unique microclimate and slate soils of this vineyard contribute to the wine's exceptional quality and distinct character. Schloss Johannisberg Grünlack Riesling Spätlese is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. Its natural sweetness makes it an excellent companion to spicy Asian cuisine, while its acidity and complexity allow it to complement rich seafood dishes and creamy cheeses.
