2015 Donnhoff Oberhauser Brucke Riesling Spatlese

The 2015 Brücke Spätlese is a stunning young wine and it is extremely floral in
personality this year. The gorgeous bouquet delivers a great blend of pear, white cherries, wild
yeasts, orange blossoms and a lovely potpourri of gentle Brücke spice tones. On the palate the
wine is pure, fullish, filigreed and beautifully complex, with great cut and grip, laser-like focus
and a very, very long, electric finish that closes with a nice note of orange peel in reserve. This is
fully ten grams per liter of acidity, buffered by somewhere around seventy grams per liter of
residual sugar. It is a brilliant wine that should age for a very, very long time. 2022-2055. John Gilman 95+
