Description
We are now at the Grand cru dry wine level. One does not encounter GGs at these kinds of prices, which is quite inviting as a means to explore the sites in question…….I will have more input after having tasted for myself……
“The 2020er Trittenheimer Apotheke Devon-Terrassen GG, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, is made from fruit picked on 60-100-year-old vines in the prime terraced part of Vogelsang and the Kaulsbohr sectors on the main hill and was fermented and aged in a mix of cask and stainless-steel tank. This bright-yellow-colored wine offers a beautiful and subtly ripe nose made of quince, pear, a hint of yellow peach, lemon zest, and quite some cardamom-driven earthy spices. The earthy and spicy elements also define the flavors on the subtly creamy and intense palate and lead to a gorgeously creamy, ripe, and subtly fruity feel in the long and slightly imposing finish. The after-taste is all about intense and creamy fruits, a hint of tartness, and some earthy elements. Lovers of dry Riesling with a dash of presence will particularly appreciate this effort! 2024-2032” 91 Mosel Fine Wines
