Schloss Johannisberg Grünlack Riesling Spätlese 2023 glows with tangerine, lime and ripe stone-fruit intensity, carried by a filigreed, crystalline acidity that keeps the gentle sweetness perfectly poised. The palate is concentrated yet airy, with a fine saline grip and a long, zesty finish that already thrills but clearly promises even greater complexity in time.

Grünlack Riesling Spätlese from Schloss Johannisberg is a single‑vineyard Rheingau Riesling made in the classic Spätlese (late‑harvest, off‑dry) style — bright, low‑alcohol and high‑acid, with vivid notes of green apple, citrus and stone fruit wrapped in a chalky/mineral thread. Hand‑harvested and usually fermented in stainless steel with some lees contact, it balances clear sweetness and racy acidity for lively freshness, food versatility (seafood, spicy Asian dishes, cheese) and very good aging potential.
