The wine shows everything that makes a classic Mosel Riesling, minerality, acidity and fruit nicely balanced.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe ageing potential of this wine is 15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe grapes were hand-picked at the end of October. The fermentation took two months at low temperatures to preserve some residual sugar. The young wine was left sitting on the fine lees for another three months afterwards giving a rounder balance. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tBottling occured seven months after harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThis is a full-grown wine which doesn't need any accompanying dish, but if you are looking for one try to pair it with Roquefort cheese (blue cheese), foie gras or desert like fruit cake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReview:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A step up, the 2015 Bernkasteler Graben Riesling Spätlese offer more complexity in its sugared peach, honeyed minerality, and subtle petrol aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, with bright acidity, it’s a winner as well as about as easy-drinking as it gets.”\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Jeb Dunnuck (March 27th 2019), 90 pts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color:#000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hansen-Lauer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948933935151,"sku":"G1EE189008RSS","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/hansengrabenlbl.jpg?v=1771485412","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/hansen-lauer-bernkasteler-graben-riesling-spatlese-2015","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
