concentrated and powerful medium weight plus flavors possess a seductive and velvety mouth feel

This may come together but it’s awkward and a bit heavy today

Drink it over the next decade

but in 2000 the fruit has enough intensity to nearly cover the tannins

Dr. Loosen, Erdener Pralat Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel other_regions_italy concentrated and powerful medium weight(for 375 ml.) Golden yellow. Rich aromas of mango, candied quince and lemon oil mingle with spicy botrytis. Intense, deep flavors of rich pit fruits and glazed honey are nicely framed by the wine' elegant saline minerality. This massive auslese is certainly the finest in Loosen's line up this vintage, but will need time to reveal its potential. Joel B. Payne
