2002 Kendermanns Eiswein Rheinhessen Riesling

Appearance - Brilliant pale gold with youthful brightness despite its age; viscous tears and crystalline clarity.

Nose - Intense and elegant: Apple blossom, pear skin, and white peach. Honey, acacia, and dried apricot. A gentle petrol‑mineral note adds classic Rheinhessen maturity. Hints of citrus oil and spice lift the bouquet.

Palate - Silky and concentrated yet lifted: Sweet orchard‑fruit richness balanced by vibrant acidity. Baked apple, honeycomb, citrus zest, and delicate spice glide across the palate. The texture is supple and crystalline, showing perfect Eiswein tension.

Finish - Long, elegant, and velvety: Lingering honeyed fruit, citrus, and mineral freshness. A clean, poised close with remarkable purity.

A graceful, mature Eiswein — floral, honeyed, beautifully balanced, and still remarkably fresh. A collector’s bottle that delivers both charm and finesse.

“A rare Rheinhessen Eiswein of crystalline purity — honeyed orchard fruit and citrus brightness over a long, elegant finish.”
