Frühlingsplätzchen, Riesling, Grosses Gewächs, 2024

justerini & brooks tasting note

A chiselled, fine boned Frühlingsplätzchen; quite shy initially, high in citric intensity and rapier-like acidity. Opens to whiter fruits and pale, taut flavours framed by stony extract, slate and salts. Fine bone China. The meticulous quality selection in 2024 equates to 50-60% of a normal crop. Produced from 35-year-old vines, fermented naturally and raised in traditional German casks. A red slate, loam and gravel dominated site facing southwest to southeast.

critic reviews

95/100Anne Krebiehl,Vinous

The 2024 Riesling Monzinger Frühlingsplätzchen Grosses Gewächs was grown on red Permian stone. It seduces on the nose with a floral, citric charm that wraps itself around stoniness. Underneath that, white peach shimmers. The palate has a beautiful, svelte but creamy core, uniting lemon and aloe vera with real zestiness. This forms a gorgeous contrast that comes together beautifully and with much elegance. (Bone-dry)
