Weingut Boujong Riesling Spätlese 2023 – Mosel, Germany

This wine has a beautiful golden straw yellow color, reflecting its ripe fruit character and the sweetness developed in the grapes during the Spätlese (late harvest). It sparkles clearly in the glass, giving a visual indication of the full-bodied and richer style that the wine carries.

The sweetness from the ripe grapes is present, but it is very well integrated and balanced by a fresh and lively acidity. This acidity gives the wine a supple structure and a pleasant, refreshing element, which means that the sweetness never feels heavy or dominant.

The taste of tropical fruits such as peach, apricot and a touch of mango is evident at the beginning, giving a juicy and fantastic fruitiness. There is a light touch of citrus which remains in the mouth and adds a purity to the character of the wine.

A versatile wine that goes perfectly with both lighter and more complex dishes. It is ideal with fish, especially oily fish such as salmon or trout, as well as shellfish. It will also be excellent with light Asian-inspired dishes, such as sushi, sashimi, or Vietnamese dishes with a touch of sweetness and spice. Spätlese wines like this also go well with a wide range of cheese dishes - especially the creamy and soft varieties such as brie and camembert. For those who love dessert wines, this Spätlese will also be perfect to enjoy alone or with fruit desserts, cheesecake or fruit tarts.
