This matured Riesling GG from the 2006 vintage displays beautifully evolved fruit flavors and complex aromas. The fragrance reveals a harmonious blend of exotic and local fruit notes, evoking ripe grapefruit, orange, vineyard peach, and baked apple. With its aged profile, the wine exudes richer, more developed aromas, accompanied by nuances of honey and a hint of dried apricot.

The VDP.GROSSE LAGE designation is reserved for Germany’s best vineyards. The sites are clearly delineated parcel for parcel. A dry wine from a VDP.GROSSE LAGE is allowed to be named “Großes Gewächs”, short GG.

This GG wine descends from our best location, Oberweseler Oelsberg. On steep slopes with up to 75% incline the vines are growing right on the Rhine. The soil is marked by its intermingling of slate, loess clay and variegated sandstone. With a microclimate predestined to grow Riesling vines here develops a powerful wine with a pronounced sovereignty. The Riesling from the Oelsberg is marked by a great scent and an overwhelming character. It is less minerally rather smooth and abundant, with exotic fruit flavors and spicy notes foregrounded.
