Berg Schlossberg Riesling GG 2023, 75 cl

From the steepest vineyard in the Rheingau! Taunus quartzite with slate inclusions characterizes this uncompromisingly purist Riesling: cool, stony, and highly precise. A Grand Cru with tension, depth, and great aging potential. On the nose, somewhat shy yet crystal clear, dominated by slate, Golden Delicious apple, a hint of citrus, and noticeable minerality, flanked by subtle toasty aromas. On the palate, this character continues seamlessly: taut, angular, and enormously complex. An ideal companion to refined fish dishes, seafood with herbs, and light meats with spicy sauces. A wine that demands patience and reaches its full potential with age and aeration. James Suckling: 98 points.
