Picked in an especially exposed parcel a day before the “regular” Spätlese was brought in, this bottling exhibits a surprisingly cool note of mint and a bite of cress to accent its luscious, pure apple and white peach. These herbal inflections add to the delightfully tingly, refreshing finish, possessed of crystalline clarity, stony mineral impingement and mouthwatering salinity. This comes as a lovely surprise given the usual expectations that “gold capsule” will signal additional ripeness or botrytis.HK$815.00 -

Like the Spätlese, the 2014 Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese also offers a still reductive, somewhat untamed and very stony bouquet with a rather discreet fruit aroma. Round and juicy on the palate, this is an elegant, pure and salty Auslese of remarkable finesse and lightness. The wine seems a bit lighter and less concentrated than the Auslese from the Niederberg Helden. Nice purity and delicacy.HK$7,335.00 -
