Horst Sauer Escherndorfer Lump Riesling S

Great to have this fantastic producer from the Franken region back in our portfolio. All the wines are excellent, but this really struck me. Years ago we sold this as a Riesling Spatlese Trocken, now sensibly shortened to S! This is superb. Slatey Riesling nose with lime, peach and ripe apple. Zesty and fresh, quite tightly wound and minerally with a lovely core of pure crisp fruit and a hint of spice on a long finish.
