2017 Röttgen Riesling trocken Großes Gewächs Heymann-Löwenstein

Parker-Reinhardt 94 Punkte: The 2017 Röttgen displays a white-golden color with a citrus-yellow shimmer. The nose is deep and flinty, with perfectly ripe, precise stone fruit intermixed with crunchy slate aromas. Highly elegant and beautifully balanced, this is an almost creamy-textured Röttgen with great finesse and elegance. The finish is lush and stimulatingly salty, provided with very fine tannins and a lovely grip with very fine bitters. Very long, intense and fresh. One of the classics of Hermann-Löwenstein. Tasted during the preview of the GG wines in Wiesbaden in August 2018.

James Suckling 94 Punkte: Still rather funky on the nose from wild ferment and long lees contact, this has plenty of pineapple and lemon zest on the palate. It may start out quite creamy, but then it turns firm and seriously mineral on the long finish. From organically grown grapes. Fair'n Green certified. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Ein betörendes Spiel von exotischen Früchten, Kaffee und Nougat, Nachhall ohne Ende.
Wie aus einem barock-überbordenden Füllhorn quillen edelste Aromen. Weißer Pfirsich und Passionsfrucht, Grapefruit und reife Himbeeren, Kaffee und Nougat, ein betörendes Spiel.
