  Drank in Gabriel Standart.
  Appearance is clear, medium intensity, yellow gold colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of rocky stones minerality, earthy loam, citrus lemon-lime, honey cream, white florals. Developing.
  On the palate, dry, sharp high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium body. Medium flavour intensity, with flavours of citrus lemon-lime, weathered rocks and stones minerality, touch of honey cream, finishing with loamy earth. Underlying green apple. Very long finish.
  Rapier-like focused acidity and dominant minerality that give this wine a very linear singular type of mouth-feel.
  Very good quality, though not in crowd-pleasing kinda way. If you can get past the acidity, this GG feels like it is going for classy elegance rather than sheer power.
  From the monopole Grosse Lage Burgergarten Breumel in den Mauern in the village of Haardt in Pfalz.

  Great bottle. Lime and green apple on the nose. Lovely minerality and a lingering long finish.

  This beautiful expression of German Riesling GG comes in bright straw color with golden reflections.
  The nose is complex, vibrant and still youthful, opening with citrus and peach notes followed by apple and minerals.
  In the mouth confirmation of citrus and apple plus some pineapple and acacia. Good acidity and structure, well balanced with a medium/long, slightly bitter, mineral finish.
  Definitely ready to be anjoyed
