The 2021 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Trocken GG offers a clear and coolish, precise and refined bouquet of ripe but fresh and elegant Riesling fruit intertwined with lime zest aromas and flinty notes. On the palate, this is a rich, vital and elegant, very complex and mineral, dense and powerful Riesling with enormous grip and tension and a long, saline finish. This is a powerful and extract-rich wine with huge aging potential.

Taut and complex, apricot stone, crisp pear, lemon – yet ultimately more savoury spice than ripe fruit. Lifting ethereal elements of pine needles, nutmeg and white pepper. Defined shoulders and tensile power, with a shockingly fine and elegant grip. Cool and considered on the long, lingering finish. Don’t let the outer calm fool you, this is not a Riesling to be trifled with. Nor to be touched for another few years.”

This white offers an enticing and beautifully balanced mix of nectarine, quince, elderflower and wild hops, backed by a vivid structure. The acidity is electric, fueling the elements and providing a great environment for long-term aging. It lingers with a persistent finish that is filled with mineral and spice that invite you for another sip. Delicious now, but best to save at least for five years.

Complex on the nose, chamomile, red apple, grape, wet stone, lemon balm. Dense extract on the palate, well-integrated acid structure, mellow, pleasant phenolics, juicy, mineral savouriness, salty, animating to drink, elegant, long on the palate. Has certain ageing potential.
