Suckling over Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule Auction Wine 2022
Dense mango chutney, curry leaf and cep mushroom aromas are married to a slew of floral honey. Great density and a fabulous interplay of lushness, northern freshness and spicy complexity that extends right through the very impressive finish. Very limited production. Drink from release.
