Kastanienbusch Großes Gewächs Riesling 2023

Stunning aromatics and herbaceous at the same time. 9.8! Really world class. Elderberry galore. Tons of mineral. Orange blossoms big time!!! 🍋. Red currants. Needs 10 years or so lose some of its fruit dry yet so much stuffing and fruit. Touch bitter, white peach. Typically one of the top 10 in German Rieslings. The 23 is a stand out. — a month ago

Felsenberg Großes Gewächs Riesling 2018

Very light colored

Light bodied and has a sweetness to it that makes you wonder if this is really a dry wine.

It develops more complexity and some lime zest flavor with more airtime

Overall good but not great.

Morstein Großes Gewächs Riesling 2015

Very much a dry German Riesling at 13% ABV. Arguably opened too early - guided by a window from Jancis. Her colleague, Julia Harding (through to 2030) was more accurate. Yellow orchard fruit aromas; under ripe peach on the palate-some spice and mineral - still carrying quite some acid. The palate is delicate and balanced. A pleasure to drink now with that GG quality coming through. I would’ve liked to try another bottle in 4 to 5 years. — 2 months ago

Jesuitengarten Großes Gewächs Riesling 2009

This was the last, yet the freshest and less evolved bottle of my 4-pack, lightest in colour, easily the best.
Considerable bottle variation..!

Lovely aromatic noses. Intense yellow flowers.

Palate : mineral. Some citrus. A bit closed on open. Green apple. As this opens the density comes out. Elegant hints of honey.

Felseneck Großes Gewächs Trocken Riesling 2018

Delightful. Immediate lime zest smack in the face.

Natural sweetness that comes though it’s not oaky or residual sugar. Just a roundness to the wine that helps balance the lime.

This wine is good with Mexican and some spice.
