Description

Gut Hermannsberg Felsenberg Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2023

The winery can look back on an eventful history. Founded at the beginning of the 20th century, it had a brilliant time as a state wine-growing domain from the 1960s to the 1980s and was undoubtedly one of Germany's top wineries. But the splendor and fame of the Royal Prussian wine-growing domain were soon lost. Only since Jens Reidel and Christine Dinse took over the estate in 2009, made Karsten Peter cellar master and estate manager and turned everything upside down, has the winery returned to its glory days - now under a new name: Gut Hermannsberg

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling from the Nahe, Germany. The Felsenberg site sits on red volcanic rock

Taste Profile: A deep, expansive rocky scent, warm sandstone, green olives, preserved salted lemon, a little sage. The mouth is also sublime, flowing densely and smoothly over the palate, sea salt, quince pear, fine reductive tension. This very slight green-leafy impact in the ripe yellow fruit is what defines the Hermannsberg style. This uncompromising and stony character is even more pronounced than Dönnhoff in this location. A cool saline explosion, spicy, herbaceous, lots of warm stone that quietly pushes over the middle, but the salty piquancy is of course there

Winemaking Process: Organic vineyard work, whole-cluster maceration, only short standing times, half fermented and matured in 600-liter stainless steel containers and half in 600-liter barrels
