Gutedel 2022

9.2

Essentially Chasselas, Fendant. Called Gutedel in Baden/Germany. Remarkable 10.5%. Dry crisp and juicy. I am biased. Have been to Staufen and i believe Baden is really the most interesting Wine Region in the World almost everything grows from Syrah, Pinot, Syrah, Muscat and more. Gutedel is a wine one drinks almost out of a Stein. A wine for the masses. This example is more nuanced with a touch of raw hazelnut, hint of lemon 🍋, hint jasmine and almond blossoms. Hint Brett. Robust and delicate at the same time. Depends on your mood I guess and ones mood in the moment. 30$ in the US over there often <10Euro. Give it air! 15 min in the glass. Warm it up a little. It turns into a beauty with notes of orange blossoms. — 6 months ago

Nose of citrus blossom, vanilla and Shea butter, berries in nougat, then full circle to limeade, tangerine zest and citrus hard candies…day 2 some clam & oyster shells

Lots of quinine, granite, quartz, lemon pith and lime zest on palate…day 2 some peach — 4 years ago
