Künstler Rüdesheimer Berg Schlossberg Riesling Grosses Gewächs

Score

90

"The 2020 Rüdesheim Berg Schlossberg GG VDP. Grosse Lage opens with a clear, precise and purely stony bouquet with iodine aromas intertwined with intense, ripe, bright Riesling fruit and fine flinty notes. On the palate, this is a supple, rich and somewhat lactic Berg Schlossberg with a creamy texture structured by crystalline, uplifting acidity. The finish is intense, lush and round but dry. It has good length and tension, but the creaminess is irritating, or at least not my style. 12.5% stated alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted in June 2022."

"Still right at the beginning of a very long life, this brilliant dry Rheingau riesling has almost stark minerality that makes you sit up with a jolt. Very intense and precise finish that’s very long for the 2020 vintage. Drinkable now, but best from 2023."
