Acquiring and trying a bottle of Keller GG Riesling has been on my list for a while, and a great opportunity allowed me to snag this 2018 and finally see what makes this producer so highly regarded.
Enjoyed at pop, and followed over two hours.
I’m sure this could have benefitted from a decant, but part of my desire was to see how it changed from the start. Incredibly aromatic out of the glass…bright citrus and nearly tropical fruits, floral and also a unique smokiness. Texturally, this was powerful with intensity and vibrant-slaty minerality. Fresh limes and limestone wrapped in a full-bodied (for a Riesling) profile with acidity and a finish that lingered extensively. Fresh. Electric. Pure.
I didn’t notice a substantial difference at last glass vs the first, but this is still in its infancy. I can’t even fathom how good these must be with 15-20yrs on them! — 13 hours ago
Excellent notes of green apple, cheerios, sweet lemon, red pepper, & nutmeg. would pair well with spicy seafood or any other light poultry — 24 days ago
WotY finalist. WTF nose of caraway, felt pads, molasses and oregano. Mouth is insane fresh with laser tag structure. More savory Crème brûlée than Riesling. — a month ago
Decent wine from Washington. Nice complexity! Blackberry jam, Baker's chocolate, bay leaves, graphite, tomato leaves , violets, and herbs. Nice long finish. — a month ago
