Smoke and matchstick on the nose. Certainly complex, with a lovely honeyed note on the palate as well as ripe lime fruit that finishes with moderate residual sugar. (RH)

Bottled in February 2014 with 13.6% alcohol and 11 grams of unconverted sugar, the 2012 Riesling Grand Cru Hengst shows a pure and intense, herbal flavored, slightly smoky bouquet of ripe and concentrated white stone fruit aromas. On the palate this is a wild, untamed horse Riesling: juicy, round and intense, complex and powerful, still young but very expressive. This wine will get finer with more years of bottle age. Very promising!
