Bastei Großes Gewächs Riesling 2021

Just a terrific wine and site. Enormously complex nose of crushed, dried, candied lemons and just a huge waft of such precise and clean minerality. Wet soil. Wet rocks. Lemon of the gods. Palate is just stunning. So elegant and mineral like nothing else. Sweet desiccated candied lemons on the palate all wrapped in silk. Terrific purity and intensity and such lovely powdered minerals in the finish and then a blast of the unique role and swee lemon character. It finishes, rocky, savory and mineral. So long. Epic structure and length. A masterpiece that will only get better with air. Unreal mouthfeel and texture. Just stunning. On days 2 and 3 this went from strength to strength. Stunning balance, purity and mouthfeel and astonishing length. Maybe a 9.9. — 23 days ago

Jesuitengarten Großes Gewächs Riesling 2019

Serious showing...definately positively surprised. Flinty lemon and crushed stones. If this has a little bit more acid at the end I would have been in Riesling heaven!!! Went amazing with grilled salmon — 4 months ago

Kirchspiel Großes Gewächs Riesling 2015

A touch of talc on the nose - a note of pineapple juice, peach and slatey mineral. German dry Riesling like this one can still be reasonably sweet. An excellent Riesling as you would expect for a GG but top quality Australian Riesling from the Clare or Eden Valleys represent better value for money IMO. — 4 months ago

I know it is expensive, but i reckon very few Oz riesling can get the complexity these wines have. Yes, they drink marvellously, but they lack the details German riesling have. You pay the marketing at the moment as well; 20+ years ago there were amazing German Riesling at the same price of the Oz ones. Obviously if you were in Europe. After the Chinese market started to buy Bordeaux first and Burgundy and Germany after everything has gone up.
Not the big names anymore, but if you travel here and there in Germany or Austria you can still get fantastic deals.
