Parker: 93/100

Parker:"Nature conspired to bless Keller with four dry (or at least, dry-ish) lots from the Kirchspiel, of which the 2010 Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling Spatlese feinherb – a 400-liter cask that simply preferred not to ferment further and join its immediate siblings as Grosses Gewachs – is the most alluring and impeccably balanced. Ripe peach, cherry, and sweet lime are wreathed in cherry blossom and lily-of-the-valley, their scents segueing into a satin-textured, succulently fruited, subtly oily palate presentation. A mingling of almond and pistachio oils adds further appeal en route to a soothing, layered finish of elegance and wafting buoyancy. While there is only the slightest hint of sweetness here, it’s perfectly judged and I would be overjoyed if such a thing of beauty as this were once again – as would have been the case a half century ago – deemed a classic example of Riesling Spatlese. Look for at least 15 years of memorable appeal – and, what’s more, versatility and unique opportunities at table from the outset. (It will be interesting to compare this wine’s evolution with that of its Grosses Gewachs and “RR” counterparts, and perhaps I am wrong to think that the balance and the discreet residual sugar will conduce to longer life – though Keller himself doesn’t seem prepared to dispute that contention.)"
