An aromatic masterpiece with fine lemon and lime pith, grapefruit and more ripe white nectarines and peaches. This has a lot of sweet aromatics. It's salty and smooth, elegant, precise and shows a deeply rich palate with great balance and power. It's long and super concentrated, and acidity has the final say. Perfect ripeness. Thrilling to drink now, but wait for 5+ years for this to reach perfection. Oct 2016, www.jamessuckling.com

Great finesse and purity on the nose, herbal flavors, crushed (gneiss) stones and ripe white fruits and a great precision – that's how the 2015 Riesling Smaragd Spitzer Singerriedel starts on the nose. Highly elegant and round on the palate, this is a Riesling of great elegance and tension, super complex, intense and mineral, with great elegance and an endless finish. A great Riesling knocking on Unendlich's door. Jun 2016, www.robertparker.com, Drink: 2016-2035
