Germany

From a steep, southwest-facing slope on the Mosel's north bank, famed for its distinctly red, iron-rich slate/volcanic soils. This is a wine that exhibits all the delights of Mosel Riesling at its best, though this is more the lean, endurance athlete type than the graceful ballerina. 

Not shy in anything, it has 51g/l of residual sugar and 9.2g/l of natural acidity, but you barely notice either as it all works so well in combination. A gorgeous, fruit-driven nose of fresh lime juice, subtle mango and kiwi is broadened by a creamy aspect, while the palate is full and open in a joyful, tropically abundant style. It has great length and vigour on the finish and it's really quite irresistible. You'll be needing at least two bottles of this!
