Vollenweider 2014 Riesling Wolfer Goldgrube Spätlese

Wolfer Goldgrube is a steep site with a large percentage of un-grafted vines, with south-west exposition, on grey slate with thin sections of red slate. Most of the Vollenweider wines are from this total 7-hectare Grand Cru vineyard. As always with the Vollenweider wines (even at the Spätlese level), the acidity is high here, but the wine is rich and textured without being weighty, with flavors of dried apricots, citron, orange blossom and green herbs make for a complex, cellar-worthy Spätlese!
