A deceptively approachable wine

This wine seems to be all about structure and tannins

Weingut Josef Spreitzer '101' Riesling, Rheingau, Germany 2020 Case (6x750ml) Naoussa well-integrated acidityIt has always been racy and crisp, even bracing, and certainly tart appley, because the point is it should be tremblingly lively without tasting "sweet." In my view this wine does precisely that; it's tensile, energetic, racy and snappy and wonderfully tense with only a scintilla of sweetness, and this '20 is a perfect vintage.
