Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 2, 2016 - Elegant nose with citrus, some peach, mineral, flowers, and tiny hints of herbs and aromatic oils. The palate is dry, citrus in the attack, rather high acidity, a mid-palate that is dominated by mineral notes (with the fruit coming in the background) and a viscous impression, followed by some foody bitterness, and a long mineral-dominated aftertaste with some bitterness. Still youngish and could probably develop more, 91(+) p.

The wine shows a lot of breeding, "GG character" and concentration, although the best GGs tend to show more citrus notes on the palate. (Apparently, some of the single vineyard wines ended up in this wine in 2013 due to small harvests, so it punches above its weight in this vintage.) Although the acidity is highish, it isn't quite as high and green apple-styled as in many other German 2013s.
