Think about everything you love in this grower's Spätlese, and then add some more. A wine of sublime purity and chiselled tension, the '22 offers up a kaleidoscopic array of flavour-try all kinds of citrus, quince, sweet yellow florals, woody herbs and slatey notes-perfectly balanced by thrilling, daisy-fresh acidity and mineral precision. Weil's picking army, which numbers up to 70 strong, has worked its magic again, gifting a beguiling, pure, tangy wonder that seems to dissolve in the mouth. The 9% alcohol comes in very handy: It's impossible to stop drinking.

"I love the way the tropical fruit extravagance of this wine is married to a dangerously refreshing acidity that lifts this remarkable Spatlese up into the upper stratosphere. Staggering ripeness, delicacy and purity right through the totally uplifting finish that makes you charge back for more!" 96 points, Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com
