Frühlingsplätzchen, Riesling, Grosses Gewächs, 2019

White flowers, friable slate and green lime citrus aromas, alongside a very light touch of reduction. The overriding sense is one of space and precision, each nuanced aromatic quality with so much room to breathe in this superb GG. Remarkably, the palate here is just as gorgeous as the nose; a lifted, harmonious blend of the slate, complex citrus notes, and the saline - really beautifully delineated and garlanded by wild meadow herbs. This is one of most beautifully balanced wines of the vintage - an ethereal power that is both profound, and elusive. A great GG of total weightless intensity and poise.
