Nik Weis St. Urbans-Hof Riesling Ockfener Bockstein Auslese 2015

Mosel, GermanyBockstein is just a delight to drink from its fresh, floral mineral, scent and flavour of white fruits and tangerines. The palate is electric and fresh with big sugar but all well-balanced by very tangy acidity with bright orange and pear flavours with a touch of spice. So alive and bright you can sense its Saar origins. The finish is long and complex but refreshingly clean. Try this with duck confit. Super value and more versatile than icewine.Tasted: 04 April 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
