Georg Breuer Rüdesheimer Berg Schlossberg Riesling 2018

95/100 PP

"Bottled, like all the crus, at the end of July 2019, Breuer's 2018 Rüdesheimer Berg Schlossberg Riesling is very precise but intense and aromatic but also flinty on the nose, where tropical fruit aromas are currently displayed but intermixed with flinty notes. On the palate, this is a juicy, linear, pure and mineral, tightly woven and tensioned dry Riesling of great class and style. It's much less fruity here than on the nose, and the finish is vital, tight and salty but most of all mineral and almost bursting of tension. Exciting and highly promising. The 2018 is not showing a lot today, but it's promising a lot. Bottled with 11.7% alcohol and one gram of residual sugar. Tasted in August 2019."

"Der Berg Schlossberg ist unbestritten die Spitzenlage Rüdesheims. Die hier vorherrschenden schiefer- und quarzhaltigen Böden ergeben einen finessenreichen, trockenen Wein mit einem Bouqet reichhaltiger Aromen, aus denen zarte Pfirsich- und Nusstöne besonders hervorragen."
