Robert Weil, Kiedricher Grafenberg Riesling Auslese Vintage:2018 mushrooms and forest floor withIs this better than the Turmberg Auslese because it is even more luscious and opulent? Because butterscotch and caramel add another sweet dimension to the sugars of the fruit? It is not better, it is different. Just as the palate is ready to succumb to the sweet embrace of tropical exuberance, a sprinkling of ginger gives the taste buds the kiss of life. (MS)
