Laser focused, concentrated and bone dry. Light white fruit aromas. lime skin and chalk flavors with a lengthy finish. Will wait on my next bottle as this ‘16 is super young.

Jul 23rd, 2020Gorgeous, aromatic nose on the Felsenberg GG 2012—it is a different animal as compared with the Dellchen I reviewed earlier—it opens with notes of dried apricot, kerosene, white flowers and a top note of blanched almond. Full and lush on entry, with glycerol up-front leading into Asian pear, lemon drop, and chalk. While not as lean and mineral-driven as the Dellchen, this is a different expression of Riesling, equally worthy of praise. The finish is outstanding, punctuated by saline and minerals.
