| Community Tasting Notes (average 92.4 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 7 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by DrELW on 2/4/2024 & rated 91 points: This is a clear, light, straw yellow colored wine. The nose is definitive with the petrol component. The flavors are lime, pineapple and green apple with a hint of white pepper. The body is fairly light with lively acidity. The complexity is elaborate with harmonious balance. Keep in mind that this a bone-dry riesling. It tasted much better as it warmed up. Overall this is a fine wine. Based on its GG rating I was hoping for some more body. (1447 views) | | | Tasted by KeithAkers on 1/12/2024 & rated 93 points: A night of GG Rieslings (Ok Omens, Portland Oregon): The nose is nuanced, fresh, and lively with deep tones of saline, lemon peels, peaches, green apples, flint, acacia flowers, pears, and crushed rocks. There is excellent depth and style here as this leans into a more salinic style than one that relies on citrus fruits. The Medium bodied feel shows off the liveliness and depth of the nose along with racy, high acidity that cuts like a hot knife through butter. This is still clearly young as the acidity has some sting to it and slightly dominates the palate. Even so, there is great length and poise with balance across the nose and palate that show off just how good this is and can be.

I ended up just having a single glass on night one, because the wine was so tightly wound that I worried that I would spend the entire evening trying to coax the wine out of its shell. I opened the bottle back up two days later and WOW! Talk about a massive change, this wine is something special.
Night one notes of lime zest and peach skin on a reserved nose and a palate of chalky minerality with slightly bitter notes followed by a super long and tangy finish.
With time to stretch its legs, this was transformed on night three into a gorgeous wine with beautiful florality, sweet herbs, a touch of smoke, and ripe white peach. I was so drawn to the pure pleasure and beauty that this wine showed, just incredible stuff.
What this winery is doing these days is remarkable, it seems like in a matter of only a few years they have taken a meteoric rise and become one of the top producers in not only the Nahe, but all of Germany. (2276 views) | | | Tasted by Xavier Auerbach on 10/11/2021 & rated 92 points: Quite waxy for such a young GG, chalky and grippy but not very precise in its aromatics, long but a bit dull? (2452 views) | | | Tasted by tooch on 3/12/2021 & rated 92 points: Crystalline flavors of peach, tangerines, lime, and wet stones. As expected, lots of tension in the wine at first - after 3+ hours open, the wine relaxed a bit and the tropical fruits became more expressive.

#2014 Vintage Notes:
2014 Vintage Report by Terry Theise
2014 Vintage Report by Wine Spectator
"My gut still tells me the Saar (and to some extent) the Ruwer are better overall in 2014 than the more storied areas of the Mosel proper, but those that spent the requisite time living in their middle-Mosel vineyards made some of the most electric and "feathery" Riesling in a long time (maybe the finest in 20 years - yes, it's true!)" - Jon Rimmerman (Of course only a very short historical memory would call the Saar and Ruwer less 'storied' than the middle Mosel - jht)NaheAn der Nahe erwarten den Besucher sanftes Grün, romantische Flusstäler und dramatische Felsformationen. Dazu gastfreundliche Winzer und ihre vielfältigen Weine.
2.000 Jahre Weinbautradition hat das Anbaugebiet an der Nahe und den Nebenflüssen Glan und Alsenz. Vor kalten Winden durch den hohen Hunsrück geschützt, schaffen milde Temperaturen und viel Sonnenschein ein hervorragendes Klima für den Weinbau in dem regenarmen und sonnigen Tal. Hier wachsen auf rund 4.000 Hektar Rebsorten wie Riesling, Rivaner, und Silvaner. Auch die Spielarten des Burgunders sowie Kerner, Scheurebe, Portugieser und Dornfelder sind hier zu Hause. Lieblingskind der Winzer ist der an Finessen reiche Riesling, ein Viertel der Rebfläche ist damit bestockt.
Eine bewegte Erdgeschichte hat der Nahe-Region eine große Bodenvielfalt beschert. Die Reben wachsen auf Schiefergestein, vulkanischen Porphyr- oder Löss- und Lehmböden. Das ermöglicht eine Vielfalt an Rebsorten und Weinstilen.
