"The 2017 Erdener Treppchen Beerenauslese Riesling shows a beautiful nose of juicy white peaches intertwined with a delicate, crisp slate aroma. What precision, finesse and purity! The palate is in the same vein: lush, highly refined and infinitely saline, with delicate crystalline acidity. A fabulous, precise and light Beerenauslese of great class and style." (Wine Advocate 2019 - Stephan Reinhardt)
