Riesling Nonnengarten 1G

93 points/Outstanding The 2022er Nonnengarten Riesling 1G, as it is referred to on the main part of the label, is made from fruit picked in this lesser-known full southfacing steep vineyard on iron-rich slate which forms the continuation of the Marienburg. This white-green-colored wine offers a rather backward but hugely impressive nose made of bitter grapefruit, citrusy fruits, ginger, bergamot, wet stone, minerals, and smoky elements. The wine is smooth and subtly creamy rather than bone-dry on the palate yet remains hugely focused and packed with finely chiseled flavors of fruits and minerals right into the long finish. The aftertaste is satisfying, multi-layered, and makes one want to go for more. This is dangerous stuff! 2025-2037
