The scents of dried apricot and honey are made even more captivating by intriguing hints of musky spice. This is viscous, luscious and complex, with bergamot notes that lend another exotic element. Long and mouthwatering on the finish.

Prinz 2005 Hallgartener Jungfer Spätlese Riesling (Rheingau)

Prinz 2004 Hallgartener Jungfer Auslese Riesling (Rheingau)

Crushed pineapple, dried apricots and fresh hay scents all mingle on the nose of this creamy-textured auslese. Flavors follow a similar path, ending elegantly. It doesn’t have the racy balance of a Mosel wine, but instead has a smooth harmony and richness. Imported by Magellan Wine Imports.

Prinz 2008 Hallgartener Jongfer Spätlese Goldkap Riesling (Rheingau)
- Online Exclusive
- $43
The ‘goldkap,’ or ‘gold capsule,’ in this wine’s designation indicates a riper cuvée than the producer’s ordinary spätlese.

Prinz 2006 Hallgartener Jungfer Spätlese Riesling (Rheingau)
- $32
This is pretty sweet for a spätlese but finishes clean and refreshing, thanks to some zippy acids. Aromas of paraffin, wet stones and citrus lead the way, followed up by flavors vaguely reminiscent of lime sherbet.

Prinz 2008 Hallgartner Jungfer Spätlese Riesling (Rheingau)
- Online Exclusive
Concentrated and balanced, with high residual sugar and lip-smacking acidity propping up elegant white flower notes. The long, clean, finish shows pretty green apple inflections. Drink now or cellar two to three years.
