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. — a month ago
Nose is is all juuuuust ripe citrusy, pulverized rocks, rock dust, lime blossom and saline, airy minerals. Palate is bracing with classic 21 Nahe acids and awesome juuuuuust ripe citrus fruit and lime zest. Nose gets confectionary with air and some appealing underarm funk. Super dry and mineral palate. Like just so severe but I love it. With air now smarties on the nose and juicy apricot on the palate and some lovely blood orange. — 4 months ago
Essentially awesome see other reviews on this wine. My go to Nahe producer. Since Schäfer Fröhlich lost it on price. Same quality for 1/2. Available through Lyle Fass. — 2 months ago
Nose: dense. Lemon flower. Dense minerals
As this opens penetrating perfect lemon. Like ride of the Valkyries. Im screaming with pleasure.
Palate: super dense. Dense minerals. Rich. Lemon. Damn. Delicious. As this opens a roundness. That Corton richness.
Brando: The density. The density.
Terrific length

well balanced, the welschriesling gives it an amazing green apple crisp & the gruner humbles it with white pepper notes to make the overall taste to be less comparable to a cidre — 4 months ago

Lovely stuff and so mineral. Love the mineral force of these wines. Nose is almost Chablisean. Seashells and ocean breeze. Lime zest and come other light citrus. Really great lift. These wines are so elite. Palate is so ultra focused with terrific purity, energy and an almost tannic finish. Palate is mostly mineral with some citrus but the great Felsenberg always needs hours to unravel. But it is all there as the length is brilliant. Great concentration and inner mouth “smarties” aromas which is classic Felsenberg. — 9 days ago
