Profound and deep with amazing acid to fruit balance. A pleasurable young GG that doesn't has me wishing I had a time machine. Dig!

Tasted at Study, Dr. Loosen wine tasting, with Bridget W. and Rachel T.
Weirdly, tastes like Sprite with a hint of banana? (At this point of the night, who even knows...)
Aged for one year on lees.
Alte Reben means old vine.
GG is the German version of Grand Cru.

So crisp with strong minerals and white peach. I could drink this every sunny day. Very full bodied with high white fruit flavor that tingles the tongue

Nose is pulverized rock and white flowers. White peach
Palate is silky. Mineral. Delicious. Green apple and white peach. Palate is a bit thin now.

Minerals and stones on the nose. Almost drinks like a Sauvignon Blanc, with a bit of spiced apple.

Not an easy wine but still exceptional. Richness of aromas

2013. Grosses Gewachs (GG). I have enjoyed many GG reislings these last few years. This wine is more fruity, less mineral/acidic than most GG's, but so delicious. Perfect with Easter dinner.
