"The 2023 Riesling Setzberg Smaragd was harvested in the Spitzer Graben, on a gneiss parcel looking southeast. Crushed lemon and lime leaves set a fresh tone on the nose, fragrant and beguiling. The palate is juicier than the nose suggests but clear-cut and vivid with Reine Claude plum, white peach and ripe but pale fruit. Juiciness and aroma are immense. The 2023 is beautifully smooth, harmonious, fresh and gentle despite all the raciness. It is gorgeous in length with a wonderfully aromatic wave of scented freshness. Wow." -Anne Krebiehl MW
