A super elegant Auslese that balances exactly the creamy and racy aspects of nobly sweet riesling, in a way that anybody who doesn't hate sweetness (e.g. rejection of sugar in espresso) will have no problem enjoying! What beautiful, peach-compote character and what a graceful finish! Drink or hold. - James Suckling
The first thing that the Rosalack Auslese teaches you is that it is far more fascinating to be enticed to explore fragrant diversity than having a bucket of fruit chucked at your nose. As you keep inhaling, subtle aromas of honey and cinnamon join the fruity fray. Richer and more luscious than the Spätlese, the ripe fruit includes peach, apricot and nectarine, still able to express their aromatic character rather than being overwhelmed by sweet opulence. Spice is finely poised and keeps you wondering whether it is cinnamon or ginger, but leaves you in no doubt that it adds complexity to generosity. - Michael Schmidt, Janis Robinson .com
