Riesling Zeppwingert Große Lage
Bottled on October 11 (and moderately sulfured for the first and last time only a few days before), Immich's 2020 Enkircher Zeppwingert Riesling displays a shining golden-yellow color and opens with a very clear, pure, deep, excitingly complex and dense but also fine bouquet with stony and herbal aromas as well as almond, oak and ripe Riesling fruit. The nose is subtle and sublime like a high-end perfume with a fantasy of aromas. The palate follows this with great finesse, subtleness and complexity. It's vital and tensile and highly stimulating on the salty finish that reveals palate-tickling mineral grip, which makes this an irresistible grand cru from the spectacular, steep Zeppwingert with its 100+-year-old vines that were world famous even before Fritz Lang, Bertolt Brecht, Kurt Weill or Arnold Schönberg. The finish is very long, intense and perfectly round, even if not fully dry. Four barrels were made. There has 12% stated alcohol and 13 grams of residual sugar. Natural cork. Tasted at the domain on November 1, 2021. 98/100
