Tasting profile
A big, complex Riesling with piercing acidity balanced by a full, expansive body, showing citrus, smoke, kerosene, tobacco, licorice, honey and roasted nuts alongside a faint laktisch edge. Youthful and built to age, it finishes long and vibrant - a contrast-rich GG with ripe fruit and knackige Saure.

What reviewers say
“Big, rich, wonderful Riesling, with lots of everything: fruit, acid, etc. A bit young despite decanting and airing for a few hours, this wine will probably keep for years.”

Summary
Battenfeld Spanier Am Schwarzen Herrgott Riesling GG is a white from Rheinhessen, Germany.
277 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 277 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 149 other whites from Germany, not against the corpus as a whole.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.

Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 277.
