Fermented on the skins for 15 days, this distinctive Riesling was originally dry and richly aromatic, with mouth-watering acidity and a fresh, savoury finish. Notes of apple must, wet stone, chamomile tea and grapefruit were complemented by a subtle sour beer character. Skin fermentation added depth, texture and gentle tannins, giving the wine the freshness of a white with some of the structure of a red.
After six years of bottle age, its bright fruit and floral notes may have softened, giving way to more complex, savoury and developed characteristics. Its texture may also have become rounder and more integrated, making this an intriguing vintage to revisit.
