A 2005 Riesling Auslese – like its Veltliner counterpart collected from a wide range of vineyards – smells of orange blossom, honey, gooseberry jam, and candied lemon. In the mouth this offers a gooseberry jam-like counterpoint of ripeness and tartness, which gives the juicy, invigorating finish some real cut. “Even under the description ‘sweet wine’ I imagine something you can drink a second glass of,” says Knoll, and that is certainly the case here.
