2002 Weingut am Stein Würzgurger Innere leiste Riesling Spätlese Trocken 0,75 Liter

Weingut am Stein Würzgurger Innere Leiste Riesling Spätlese Trocken 2002, from Germany’s Franken, is a 100% Riesling from the Innere Leiste vineyard’s limestone soils. The nose offers an evolved bouquet of green apple, lemon zest, and white peach, interwoven with wet stone and a subtle petrol note. The palate is medium-bodied, bone-dry with crisp acidity, delivering flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and a pronounced mineral core, with a smooth, lingering finish. Aged in stainless steel and neutral oak, it reflects Weingut am Stein’s biodynamic philosophy. The 2002 vintage, known for its balance, produced a wine of remarkable finesse, ideal for pairing with grilled seafood, light salads, or soft cheeses. Its evolved flavor profile and structured elegance make it a collector’s gem, showcasing Innere Leiste’s unique terroir. With moderate aging potential, this Spätlese Trocken offers enthusiasts a sophisticated expression of Franken’s winemaking heritage.
