Rüdesheimer Riesling Spätlese 2006 Rheingau Balthasar Ress
The family-owned Ress Estate dates frrom 1870 and is one of the most important in Germany´s famous Rheingau region. Above the little town of Rüdesheim on the river Rhine the Riesling vines grow on steeply terranced south-facing slopes, whose rocky barren soils originating from quartz and slate always provide outstanding natural ripeness and concentration. Showing a lemon yellow colour, white flower aromas with a hint of honeysuckle and fresh limes, soft summer fruits on the palate and a refreshing acidity that balances the touch of sweetness, the 2006 vintage, small but of excellent quality, is now simply delicious.
