Tasting note
Erdener Prälat Riesling should suggest ripe peach, apricot and citrus blossom, with a honeyed note balancing its bright aromatic lift. The 2000 Auslese Goldkapsel is expected to feel lush and concentrated, while Riesling's acidity keeps the sweetness lively and the texture finely shaped. Peak maturity lasts to 2039, followed by a longer drinking horizon through 2050; stone fruit and lemon peel should lead into a mineral finish.
