Description

chevron-down

The Wiltinger Braune Kupp Spätlese 2020 is rich and intense, yet bright and subtle on the deep, spicy and spicy nose with aromas of rosewood and petals. Rich and intense yet refined and elegant on the palate, this is a mouth-filling, juicy, beautifully balanced and persistently salty Kupp Spätlese with a concentrated, very long and salty finish. Far too young to enjoy today, this is a long-distance runner of great class and style. One of those types of wines that can last forever.

The Wine Advocate (Parker) consistently writes in its review: "Buying the Wiltinger Braune Kupp is a must for all true Riesling fans"
