2022 Weingut Hermann Ludes Thornicher Ritsch Riesling Kabinett 'Monster', Mosel, Germany
$37.99
This is a powerful, broad and silly-complex Kabinett sourced from what Julian thinks is the best parcel they own in the Ritsch – it is also the biggest single parcel at 1.1 hectares, thus it is called the “monster” parcel. The wine flashes layers and layers of fruit, a fascinating assortment of ripe apples, pear and citrus oils, all of them edged or underlined by a sweet, earthy balsamic. It’s so complex, as if an opulent, tropical world of guava and mango was flash-frozen, dusted with citrus and salt – I don’t know how else to describe it. The flavors are exotic, yet the freshness is still there. The fruit is so streamlined, the entire wine so seamless and sheened. Just 36g of residual sugar and an outrageous 11.1g of acid. -VB
