巴爾梅斯·比謝·亨斯特麗絲玲特級園 2020

The alcohol heat on this 14.5% is surprisingly well-integrated, giving it a powerful but not harsh finish. I've bought a case to see how it evolves over the next decade.

Even after just a year in the bottle, the layers of flavor are already incredible—the concentration is stunning. This is a serious, powerful wine that somehow remains elegant. I can only imagine how good this will be after a decade of aging.

The 14.5% ABV gives this Riesling an incredible intensity, but it's the layers of complexity that kept me coming back for another sip. I’ve opened one bottle now and already ordered two more to cellar for a decade.
