It’s the vestibule beyond which are the Grand Crus, basically; in this version there’s some phenolic action (from a new Stückfass), and it shows the muscular side of Riesling, making an adamant point in its salty gravelly way.

"This is showcasing a delightful array of spice that adds complexity. It features lush fruit notes of ripe peach and apricot, all supported by vibrant acidity. The impressive length of the finish invites you to savor every sip. Skurnik Wines, Inc. —A.Z."

"This mineral masterpiece is very finely nuanced, but it doesn't mess around, rather it makes a bold statement of intent. Very complex nose of wet stones, rhubarb, white peaches and flowers. Dense yet delicate, structured and filigree, this medium-bodied wine shoots across the palate with a linearity that reminds me of Australian dry riesling, but is married to wonderful wild-herb delicacy. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."
