2011 Graacher Domprobst Riesling Auslese 11

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Iris, lily and apple in the restrained nose of a Schaefer 2011 Graacher Domprobst Riesling Auslese A.P. #11 usher-in a glossy, faintly oily palate in which an alliance of apple jelly and Normandy cider with liquid floral perfume makes for a seductively soothing, long-lasting performance. Saline and stony inflections add interest and counterpoint not to mention saliva inducement to the luscious fruit and liquid perfume, and over the next three decades or more this haunting Auslese is apt to have much more to say for itself. - David Schildknecht, Apr. 2013
