Lovely nose of orange blossom and flint. Ripe and delicate, stony and strong, this is a fascinating Nahe riesling GG with an extremely mineral and spicy finish that extends out towards the horizon. So precise and pristine. Great aging potential! Drinkable now, but best from 2025.
Riesling grapes have been grown in and around central Europe for centuries, and over time, they became the lasting symbol of south Germany's ancient and proud wine culture. Whilst the reputation of German wines abroad has in the past been mixed, the Germans themselves take an enormous amount of pride in their wineries, and Riesling grapes have now spread around the globe, growing anywhere with the correct climate in which they can thrive. Riesling grape varietals generally require much cooler climatic conditions than many other white grapes, and they are generally considered to be a very 'terroir expressive' varietal, meaning that the features and characteristics of the terroir they are grown on comes across in the flavors and aromas in the bottle. It is this important feature which has allowed Riesling wines to be elevated into the category of 'fine' white wines, as the features of the top quality bottles are generally considered to be highly unique and offer much to interest wine enthusiasts.
Country
Germany
As in many Old World countries, the rise of viticulture in Germany came about as a result of the Roman Empire, who saw the potential for vine cultivation in the vast flatlands around the base of the Rhine valley. Indeed, for over a thousand years, Germany's wine production levels were enormous, with much of the south of the country being used more or less exclusively for growing grapes. Over time, this diminished to make way for expanding cities and other types of industries, but Southern Germany remains very much an important wine region within Europe, with many beautifully balanced and flavorful German wines being prized by locals and international wine lovers alike. The hills around Baden-Baden and Mannheim are especially noteworthy, as these produce the high end of the characteristic semi-sweet white wines which couple so perfectly with German cheeses and pickled vegetables. However, all of Germany's wine producing regions have something special and unique to offer, and are a joy to explore and experience.

The 2022 Goldloch GG opens with a very fine, aromatic nose with delicate notes of stones with hints of iodine and wonderfully precise aromas of yellow stone fruit. Stimulatingly salty and zesty on the palate, this dense, firm, mineral and fruity Riesling is an excellent representative of the vintage—not only in the Nahe region but throughout Germany. Even in this hot and dry year, there is something ascetic about it, despite the gold in its name. Tasted at the Vorpremiere VDP.Grosses Gewächs in Wiesbaden in August 2024.

The 2022 Riesling Dorsheimer Goldloch Grosses Gewächs is grown on Permian quartzite and pebble conglomerate. Subtle stone fruit is framed by lemon on the nose. A touch of pear peel adds a riper top note. The palate has an inherent, juicy coolness and a pithy yet soothing texture and concentration. The mouth-watering finish brings out more fruit: juicy green apple, tart Mirabelle and lemon. A gentle herbal savoriness lingers alongside citrus on the finish. (Bone-dry)
