Driven by intense and ripe yellow fruit flavours. Harmonious balance of luscious texture, mineral richness and lean, racy acidity. Elegant and seductive in style with a long lasting aftertaste.
Spätlese is a German wine term that translates to "late harvest." It refers to Riesling wines made from grapes that are harvested later in the season, allowing them to develop more ripeness and higher sugar levels. This results in wines that are typically richer and more intense in flavor compared to those made from earlier-harvested grapes.
Spätlese Rieslings can range from dry to sweet, but they often exhibit a balance of sweetness and acidity, with flavors of ripe stone fruits, honey, and sometimes a hint of minerality. The late harvest also contributes to a fuller body and more complex aromatics.
The Richter 'Veldenzer Elisenberg' Riesling Spätlese is typically a semi-sweet to sweet wine.
