2005 Hexamer Riesling Spatlese, Schlossboeckelheimer in der Felsen, Nahe

Matt told me this would be in my wheelhouse, and boy was he ever right. I did taste it before and buy it, Matt. Gorgeous stuff. Nahe rieslings come closest to ambrosial heights as any region of German wine. Misty mineral strawberry peach lemonade. It makes me think of plucking a perfect, dew-laden berry in a fog-shrouded glade in elf territory. Although elf territory is politically neutral, there are great risks involved with traversing there, notably bags under the eyes and tooth sensitivity of epic proportions. This one looks like it could age with grace and confidence for a couple decades, like a young, composed Ribera del Duero. Definitely gonna buy more of this stuff.
