Reuscher-Haart, Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, Riesling Spätlese trocken, 2007

If to me some of the recent 2006 wines were like an acid handgranade, this Riesling here is the 80mm shell. Dry, edgy, green apple with a hint of nut. And a clearly defined core of steely acidity with just enough fruit flavours decorated around it to give you a proper punch.

If, like me, you sometimes shy away from too much acid, make sure to have this wine with food - and do not be afraid, it can take it, even meat. Or put it in the decanter - even after three days in the open bottle it was still sharp as a blade. If you have either strong food or a stomach of steel, this is a nice, crass Riesling to go for, especially for the price.
