($16): Despite a relatively short history–the winery was established only in 1979–Hermann J. Wiemer makes some of this country’s best Rieslings. This one’s serious stuff with a hint of floral elements gracefully intertwined with piercing minerality. Perfectly dry, it’s long, balanced and precise. A touch of flintiness in the finish is a pleasant dividend. Riesling fans should not miss it. Everyone else should try it to see why so many are already Riesling fans. 91 Michael Apstein Apr 26, 2011
