2016 Königsbach Ölberg-Hart Riesling Grosses Gewächs trocken Kapelle, Versteigerungswein, Pfalz, Germany

Nose still slightly reductive and restless, light lactic and volatile notes, deep, complex and very firm, yellow fruit and yellow spice, nuts, herbs, hint of dried flowers, root vegetables and prominent mineral notes. Very firm on the palate, still totally closed, yeasty notes, hint of tobacco and yellow spice, very ripe acidity, delicately sweetish and creamy, nutty and vegetal notes, hint of Sumatra tobacco, persistent and concentrated, peppery spice, intense mineral notes in the background, compact structure, root vegetables, tremendous substance, but not heavy, deep, complex, delicate buttery traces, appears fairly soft, but not at all approachable at this stage, very long, expressive finish. Needs a long time to mature.
