From Wine Advocate: A profusion of lily, rose petal, apple blossom, brown spices and ripe pear soars from the glass of 2007 Winkeler Jesuitengarten Riesling Spatlese. There is a Spreitzer-typical, Mosel-like delicacy and lift here, but also a very Rheingau sense of underlying depth and substantiality, notably in this instance nutty, stony characteristics underlying a lush, but densely-layered finish. This should cellar magnificently for at least 20 years.  

From Wine Spectator: Smoke and flint aromas lead into apricot and peach flavors in this slim, well-defined Riesling. It's generous, with a lively structure and a lingering aftertaste of orange and stone. Drink now through 2030. –BS

Riesling

Ah, Riesling. Often pigeonholed as a one-trick pony, producing sweetish wines of little distinction, Riesling is actually so much more, and is often cited by wine lovers as their favorite white grape. Riesling is grown all over the world, reaching it’s greatest heights in Germany where it’s made into wines ranging from bone-dry to exotically sweet (and expensive!) wines. You’ll find great Riesling in Australia (outstanding dry versions), New Zealand, and America too. Riesling is also an exceptional food wine, pairing well with Chinese, Thai, and other spicy foods.
