Dr. Bürklin-Wolf Wachenheimer Rechbächel Riesling Beerenauslese 2007
- 375 ml bottle
Product details
A dusty pungency on the nose of the 2007 Wachenheimer Rechbachel Riesling Beerenauslese spells botrytis in a more obvious way than is the case with this year's other nobly sweet Burklin-Wolf bottlings. Dried apricot and honey mingle on the palate with alkaline, saline mineral notes unexpected in a Beerenauslese, and the combination of chewy fruit skin and intense citrus in the finish is stunning, if not entirely winsome. I'd suggest there's not point in even revisiting this for more than a decade, and it should live for more than a quarter century. Score - 93. (David Schildknecht, robertparker.com, Oct. 30, 2009)
