Nikolaihof, Vinothek Riesling 2008

"The 2008 Riesling Vinothek is clear and deep on the initially somewhat untamed and gamey as well as flor-inflected and slightly oaky nose that nevertheless indicates very clear and healthy, elegant and concentrated fruit with flinty notes, and it gains clarity and complexity with air." – Wine Advocate

"A soft sense of lanolin and creaminess defines the nose, edged by the gentlest citrus zestiness. The palate is superbly bright and very slender, carrying more of that lanolin character with the smoothest, slightest texture. Brightness, earthiness and luminosity are strangely combined in this elixir-like wine. Super slender, concentrated and quiet, it really goes under your skin." – Vinous
