Low average yields and selective manual harvest. Wild-yeast fermentation in stainless steel vats. Then gentle pressing. Ten to eleven months on the fine lees for added complexity and creaminess. No filtering or fining.
The Riesling Goldberg Grosses Gewächs 2024 captivates on the nose with aromas of ripe citrus fruit, apricot, mango and delicate herbal notes, elegantly underscored by subtle hints of flint and smoke. Powerful on the palate, with concentration and a remarkable precision, driven by vibrant freshness that brings energy and tension. The long, impressive finish culminates in a distinctive saline, mineral-driven finale.
Steep slopes with a high proportion of ungrafted vines on red slate soils containing elements of rhyolite and quartz porphyry.
