Tasting Notes

Herrmannsberg

2015 - Herrmannsberg Riesling GG
The 2015 comes with a very spicy and herbal minerality in the nose, orange peel and slight exotic fruit notes, floral elements. On the palate great depth, fresh and powerful minerality, smooth acidity, mandarine peel and citrus, very balanced, spicy mineral finish with nutmeg notes.

2010 - Herrmannsberg Riesling GG
The 2010 presents itself smoother in the nose, great minerality again, but with slight honey and nuts, also herbal, on the palate the additional five years make this GG even smoother, finer and softer, the depth stays and gets well balanced with great minerality, elegant acidity and nice honey, finishes with great spiciness. If can afford to wait, five years definitely help to offer a bomb of a Riesling.

Bastei

2015 - Bastei Riesling GG
The wine stayed two years of the yeast which gave it a lot of character. The ripe nose is spicy with great flint stone minerality, red and white currant, orange peel and herbs, slight honey too. On the palate it is very smooth and creamy, slight smoky notes, great grabbing and fresh acidity dances with the spices from the deep minerality. Finishes very fresh and inviting with citrus style acidity and beautiful flint-stone style notes.

Kupfergrube

2015 - Kupfergrube Riesling GG
Very inviting nose of ripe fruit notes, especially passion fruit, floral and herbal elements and great firestone-like minerality. On the palate great complexity with a crisp acidity, spicy minerals, all elements of a ripe fruit body and herbs. Finishes dry and fresh with grapefruit peel and good spices. Very nice to drink!
