Battenfeld Spanier, Zellerweg Schwarzen Hergott Riesling GG other_regions_australia the 2007 Brunello di MontalcinoThe very smoky and flinty nose pulls you inexorably into this dense and highly structured dry riesling, but those descriptors make the wine sound austere, whereas all this is wrapped in concentrated mirabelle fruit. The entire composition making a bold statement, particularly at the long and imposingly chalky finish. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
