2019 Stetten Stein Riesling Grosses Gewächs trocken, Franconia/Franken, Germany

Deep, dense, compact and multi-layered, clearly more vegetable and even more yeasty, even slightly nutty aroma with reserved yellow-fruity aromas, a hint of mushrooms and bacon as well as chalky earthy tones. Firm, tangy, dense fruit, again bacony and clearly vegetable aromas, chalky and salty minerality, light nutty aromas, some mushroom and herbal notes, persistent, still completely undeveloped, good depth and substance, restrained power, much grip of ripe tannin, very good, again distinctly firm finish with tart juice and intense minerality. Takes time
