J.B. Becker - 2022 Riesling Walkenberg Spatlese Trocken

As much as we love Kabinett Trockens – and you know we do – I’m loath to say that the Spätlese Trockens are probably the heart of the vintage here again. The younger-vine bottling (this one) is explosive, fruity, airy, aromatic, all-encompassing, as it normally is. In 2022 it’s perhaps a bit more floral and herbal than the 2020, and perhaps also a bit more structured. Still, this I think has to be considered the “go to” bottle for the lineup – just a perfect mix of serious and pure joy.
