Merkelbach Kinheimer Rosenberg Riesling Spatlese 2020
Incredibly floral and of Rosa damascena roses in particular with its heady and consuming floral intensity, an exotic spice, and damp earthen character like saffron and crocus bulbs -all of which complements the core of nicely ripened red pears. Supple sweetness in harmony with ripe acidity that curls around the palate with a pleasant tension and texture.

Pork, ham, scallops. Salmon or tuna most anyway even tartare. Asian food. An excellent wine with food.
