2013 Forst Pechstein Riesling Grosses Gewächs trocken, Pfalz, Germany

Somewhat smoky, almost yeasty, herbaceous and planty scent of ripe, partly candied citrus fruits with some stone fruit, floral nuances, distinct minerality, as well as a hint of caramel, honey and butter. Much more tart in the mouth than the nose suggests, bright, citrus-accented fruit, enormous acidity, again yeasty, slightly smoky, vegetal and hints of buttery notes, nutty on the palate, persistent, noticeable tannic grip, minerality in the background, bone-dry style, very slightly muted, at first downright angular and brittle, then clearly more harmonious with plenty of air, very good, tart finish, again with plenty of acid bite. Seems rather unapproachable at the moment.

Editor note: Translate to English Fester, ganz leicht holzwürziger Duft nach Kern- und Steinobst mit etwas Zitrusfrüchten, feinen vegetabilen, an Bohnen erinnernden Tönen, einer Spur Hefe und Kokos, rotbeerigen Nuancen und deutlicher Mineralik. Sehr fest im Mund, herbe, dabei saftige Frucht mit straffer, sehr präsenter Säure, dicht und nachhaltig am Gaumen, florale und dunkelbeerige Nuancen, im Hintergrund ins Salzige gehende Mineralik, kompromissloser Stil, zupackend, gewisse Tiefe, sehr guter, herber Abgang mit enormem Säurezug. Braucht Zeit.
