Incredible wet-stone minerality and great peach and candied pineapple aromas plus a haunting wild herb note make this a very exciting dry riesling. In fact, it tastes like a serious single-vineyard wine. Fantastic balance right through the very long finish. Only 12.5% alcohol. Mostly from young vines in the Grand Cru Brand. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (96) STUART PIGOTT, James Suckling
The 2023 Riesling Roche Granitique was harvested in the Grand Crus of Brand, Wineck Schlossberg and a smaller site underneath the Brand, all on granite. A touch of flint blends deliciously with crunchy apple, almost like Cox Orange Pippin, full of the promise of juiciness and verve with a slight burst of smokiness. The palate delivers exactly that, with touches of crunchy green and red apple, beautiful concentration and a lightness in its step. This is totally fresh and mouthwatering. (Bone-dry) ANNE KREBIEHL MW, Vinous
