Willi Schaefer’s wines have an almost cult-like following, and for good reason—few producers capture the Mosel’s ethereal beauty with such effortless grace. The Graacher Himmelreich vineyard, known for its slightly more open-knit and fruit-forward expression compared to the firmer Domprobst, is a perfect canvas for Schaefer’s delicate touch. In the 2023 vintage, the wine shines with vibrant energy, balancing ripe fruit and electric acidity with pinpoint precision.

Juicy white peach, apricot, and Meyer lemon unfold over a backbone of slate-driven minerality, while a whisper of floral honey adds depth without weight. The sweetness is beautifully integrated, never overpowering, making this a Spätlese that feels almost weightless on the palate. Its natural tension and bright finish make it a stunning partner for spicy Asian dishes, fresh seafood, or simply an evening of slow appreciation. A wine that will age gracefully for decades but is nearly impossible to resist now.

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
