Emrich-Schonleber 2010 年的 Riesling Lenz 含有 11% 的酒精，味干，淡咸的梨子，葡萄柚和黃色覆盆子的風(fēng)味讓人難以忘懷，這種風(fēng)味存在相應(yīng)的 Trocken 酒中。該酒喝起來帶有微妙的光滑感，果汁異常豐富而新鮮，余味綿長，令人振奮的麻刺礦物質(zhì)和柑橘皮風(fēng)味沖擊著口腔。適飲期：未來 4 至 6 年內(nèi)。

The dry-tasting but legally halbtrocken, 11.5% alcohol Emrich-Schonleber 2009 Riesling Lenz displays a sheer succulence of citrus, tart red berry, apple, and white peach that goes beyond that of the corresponding generic trocken. A hint of pistachio lends underlying richness as both soothing and refreshment are handily delivered. An alliance of spice and saline, stony, peaty, as well as seemingly crystalline mineral impingement renders this buoyant, elegant Riesling invigoratingly and almost compulsively next sip- and saliva-inducing. It ought to perform with versatility over the next 4-6 years. Werner and Frank Schonleber harvested through nearly the entire month of October, and noted that levels of sugar and total acidity remained fairly constant, while flavors kept improving and malic acid diminishing in favor of tartaric. Speaking of improving, it’s hard for these two vintners to much-improve their by now phenomenal batting average, but no Riesling lover is likely to suffer the least disappointment by buying bottles of Emrich-Schonleber 2009s. Especially at its dry end, this is a collection to describe which seems to call for an extended mineral vocabulary that doesn’t even exist in English or German! And in nobly sweet echelons, the small amount of Riesling the Schonlebers rendered is strikingly successful and informed by an ample if mysterious measure of sheer juiciness. About the absence of Eiswein, Frank Schonleber notes: “We had the feeling that ripeness had simply advanced too far in 2009 to justify leaving any grapes hanging in anticipation of frost.”Imported by Sussex Wine Merchants, Moorestown, NJ; tel.
