My admittedly last bottle of this, pnp, first a little restrained on nose and palate, but needs only about half an hour to open up, then this bottle shows a stunning strong fragrance, stonefruit, chalky minerals, on the palate sublime, that young, a Riesling iron fist in velvet gloves, finesse pur, a savoury but very delicious fruit, both mouthfilling and mouthwatering, therefore beautifully focused, rich and deep, ending with a marvellous finish, top notch++ bottle, to kneel devout down for, among my very best dry GG bottles ever, ENJOY! *****+, 98- 100
Same Procedure again..... because having set this Wine to my Favorites here an "older" Recession: Second of at least 3 Bottles, found these 3 Bottles in a little Winestore in the West of the City of Hamburg, Germany 12.02.2009: what a Nose! Spicy, Minerality pure, the Acidity still bites and I love this......, somewhat creamy and a little salty, exotic Fruits, enormous long Aftertaste, drunk this Bottle over 28 Hours and for the whole Time there is only one Word: IMPRESSIVE! And now the Question: When do I have to drink the last ONE? 96-100?

Unrivalled concentration, depth, power and finesse, unoaked German Montrachet, ripe fruit covered by amazing acidity, a clenched fist but already perfectly balanced and deliciously drinkable. Now - 2022?
