The kingpin of the #PRÄLAT CLUB group and by far the rarest of all, given the minuscule size of the vineyard. The rich, red #volcanic soil plays to the intensity, depth, and sheer complexity of the wine as does the #ungrafted root stock throughout the site. When #Loosen says "old vines", he's understating his case. These are amongst the oldest original root stock vines in Europe! #2013 #ÜrzigerWürzgarten #AlteReben #Riesling

A great riesling! Although still somewhat young, this Riesling (GG) emerges with an ideal harmony of fruit, acidity and minerality.

Druvtypisk initialt med gummi, stenfrukt och blommor. Rund och lätt oljig munkänsla. Med lite luft öppnar många lager upp sig. Citronolja, blöta stenar, krut men alltjämt med ett fruktigt och långt avslut. Prisvärd!

Old vine means old vine for Ernie- 100+ yrs and ungrafted. Elegance, depth, Terrior, finesse. Superb.
