Weingut Schätzel
Pettenthal Riesling
Closed but promising. Sick nose. Palate closed. Nose has not budged much. Citrus, saline, caramel. Lime zest. Palate is complex and juicy with lovely almost sweet mineral expression. Really creamy and long. Very good.

Aug 20th, 2016Super herbal, mineral, confectionary, periodic table of minerals on the mid and finish, and huge tannins. Long. Tannins protect the saltiness.

Aug 20th, 2016Beautiful stony Riesling, lots of zippy citrus acidity and spicy minerality.
Cooler and more elegant than most 2015s from Rheinhessen.

Suffered from the spicy chicken that was served at the same time... so it’s complexity got lost in the flood...
But the telltale piercing minerality and supporting acidity survived! 🙂

This is the best young GG I had in quite a while.
So much minerality, so much spice...
Lithe, ethereal, yet concentrated.
Looking forward to witness its evolution.
Truly spectacular.
