The citrus-yellow colored 2017 Riesling Erdener Treppchen Auslese *** (White Capsule) opens with smoky, speck-like aromas along with frankincense and crystalline slate notes on the intense, concentrated yet bright and super clear nose, showing fresh oak, lemon zest and confit in the beginning. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich, highly concentrated yet fine, elegant and refreshing Treppchen with a firm, persistent structure and a very long, juicy, delicately sweet finish. This tensioned yet also refined and salty Treppchen is still extremely young and asks for 10 years of bottle aging. This is fascinatingly powerful and fragrant as a perfume. Tasted in March and April 2019.
