Opened for CT Zoom tasting, orange gold, powerful overripe peach nose, intense palate of peach, pineapple, botrytis, and sour candy. The finish is very long and slightly puckering, no oxidation and modest residual sugar. A powerful Riesling, enjoyed as an apéritif.

Burnished 18k gold. Ultrafresh nose of honey, overripe apples, and pineapple. The palate is intense ripe white stone and pommes, showing just off-dry but probably still has some significant sugar, and some botrytis, and is beautifully balanced. The finish is long and tangy, refreshing and slightly alkaline. The whole package is rather richer than most of the (few) modern GG wines I have had. Enjoyed with sauteed char as well as alone.

Much as previous, plenty of stuffing in this wine.
