Weingut Emrich-Schonleber "Lenz" Riesling 2010

This little district in German is situated along the Nahe river and would have to be one of the smallest regions as it only comprises a little over 10 acres. To the north the soil is rocky and there is many microclimates that has allowed people to diversify their Riesling stronghold and move into some red varieties. However this wine goes to cement the fact that Riesling is king.

Give me some flavour baby! This wine has so much flavour going on that it is difficult to seperate them which is a good thing if you want to be bombarded. They is a mix between light and heavy concentrate moment all mixed in one. The wine is alive in the mouth and finishes crisp. I'm not sure how this will develop as it offers so much right now.
