Dr Thanisch Berncasteler Doctor Riesling Spatlese 2018

The 2018 Berncasteler Doctor Riesling Spätlese is clear and flinty on the still-reductive nose with its tropical fruit aromas. Voluptuously lush and wide on the palate, with finely crystalline acidity, this is an elegant and refined yet pretty sweet Doctor with a piquant and salty-crystalline finish with grip and tension. A gorgeous Doctor—in 10 or 20 years. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink 2030-2060. 92+ Points. Stephen Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate.
