Niederhauser Hermannshohle Spatlese 2005

Pale golden yellow. Mesmerizing aromas of papaya, cherry, sweet herbs and tobacco. Discreet yet intense cherry fruit rises from the mid-palate, accompanied by brilliant acidity. Animated and spicy wine with a riveting finish. Perhaps the finest of the spatleses shown here.
