Schäfer-Fröhlich 2007 Bockenauer Felseneck Spätlese Riesling (Nahe)
- $41
Starts off with beautiful scents of ripe peaches, orange blossom and a briny minerality, then delivers all of that and more in a slightly creamy, sensuous mouthful of flavor. The purity of ripe fruit is noteworthy, extending through the long, filigreed finish.

Schäfer-Fröhlich 2005 Bockenauer Felseneck Spätlese Riesling (Nahe)
- $33
Pleasantly plump and custardy in texture, this complex, mouthfilling wine offers a whirl of aromas and flavors, ranging from fresh asphalt to lime custard and green apple. By the finish, any objectionable notes have vanished, leaving a clean, lingering finish beaming with elegance. Consider decanting if drinking in the near future, or simply hold 3–5 years before…

Schäfer-Fröhlich 2005 Kabinett Riesling (Nahe)
- Online Exclusive
- $25
This starts off with some odd wet wool and fresh tar notes, but quickly rights itself, delivering a medium-bodied mouthful of crisp lime and melon fruit. If possible, give it a quick splash in a decanter before drinking.

Schäfer-Fröhlich 2007 Medium-Dry Riesling (Nahe)
- $22
Intensely mineral on the nose, followed up on the palate by flavors of crushed vitamin tablets, wet stone and brine. Despite some residual sweetness, the overall impression is of salty, mineral dryness coupled with tart, citrusy flavors on the finish.

Schäfer-Fröhlich 2005 Halbtrocken Riesling (Nahe)
- $18
Smoky and leesy upfront, with powerful diesel notes. Yet all that seems to disappear on the palate, where apple and citrus flavors hold sway. Has a pleasantly plump, custardy texture and a crisp clean finish.
