Immich-Batterieberg, Escheburg Riesling 2023

Produktbeskrivelse

“Pretty closed, with an intense flinty character in the first moment, this needs some aeration to bring out the stone fruit, caramelized pear and pie crust aromas. Concentrated and creamy, with a deep well of minerality, this de facto village wine has stunning depth and finesse on the medium-bodied palate. Then the almost endless finish knocks you sideways. From organically grown grapes grown in all the top sites of Enkirch, with the Ellergrub slightly in the majority. “ 94p. James Suckling

“The 2023 Escheburg is from 60-year-old Riesling vines, mainly from the Ellergrub (50%), that yielded 35 hectoliters per hectare. The wine vinified in smaller oak barrels for 10 months and opens with a reductive and stony bouquet of ripe and open fruit aromas with flinty nuances. Round and juicy on the palate, this is a dense and complex, saline and savory, super salivating and energetic Escheburg with tension, precision and character.” 93p. Stephan Reinhard, Robert Parker.com

Escheburg er en sammensætning af druer fra Grand Cru markerne Steffensberg, Ellergrub, Batterieberg og Zeppwinger. Intens, koncentreret karakter, med en næsten cremet mineralsk kompleksitet og klare saline undertoner. Vinstokkene er mindst 60 år gamle (næsten alle er upodede vinstokke), og giver et sparsomt udbytte på blot 25 hl. pr. ha. Et brag af en Riesling til prisen.
