Kiedrich Gräfenberg GG trocken Riesling 2021

This is an accidental pour... I wanted to open one other Robert Weil erste lage Riesling trocken wine and didn't pay enough attention... well, this is probably much too young, but we like it anyway! The nose is slightly muted with lemon skin, a petroly thing, rose petals, elder flower, a touch of vanilla. Wow this is a bit unusual when compared to the usual german Riesling numbers I am used to. There is almost a tiny strawberry jogurt touch too. The palate is showing a great acid drive, some massive width, some grip all along, lemon zest, lemon juice, that same jogurty note all along... The finish starts with a massive, spherical, mid palate that powers up a real massive complex finish with lemon peel, strawberry jogurt that goes on for almost a minute. This is probably too young but this is a monster of a wine too. Hat's off! — 8 hours ago

Ah yes, you “accidentally” popped a GG. A fortuitous “accident.” 😉

Wallufer Walkenberg Spätlese Riesling 2021

A mammoth, chiseled beast of a wine that really needs extensive decanting and/or aging. Despite a modest decant, imagine am tasting a tease of its true potential. — a month ago

Gelblack Trocken Riesling 2021

This is the Trocken, not the Feinherb. Loads of stony minerality on the nose, to go with pristine apple fruit. Full and intense, nice acids. Quite dry but deep fruit. — 3 months ago
