2019 Oestrich Doosberg Riesling Grosses Gewächs trocken, Rheingau, Germany

Deep, floral and very delicate yellow-spicy nose, slightly reminiscent of sea buckthorn, with calm yellow-fruity aromas, nutty traces, some yeast, smoke, delicate butter, morels and clear minerality. Very tightly knit, dense, juicy, rather cool fruit, lively acidity and grip of crumbly tannin, floral and dried herbal nuances in the background, dense, persistent and deep, intense minerality, chalk, stone and salt, a hint of dark berries in the background, best balance, has something natural, fine minty ethereal flavours, very good to long, firm, tart-juicy finish with pull and grip. Great.
