Et unikt fad, som Tim Fröhlich brugte hele modningsprocessen på at snige sig rundt om i kælderen, fordi han fandt det så fascinerende. Det er det renest mulige udtryk for Felseneck, jorden og klippen. Intet andet har en plads her, reduceret til et maksimum. En vild næse, hvor urter, havsalt, stenmel, flint og lyse citrusfrugter spiller sammen i en enorm Riesling-storm. Alligevel er alt elegant, ultrapoleret og raffineret. FINAL er indbegrebet af Tim Fröhlichs nedbarberede stil, maksimal præcision og det mest nøgne udtryk for jordbund, der er muligt i en Naheriesling. Rien ne va plus - dette er Schäfer-Fröhlich i sin endelige version, dette er Tim Fröhlichs G-Max fra den bedste del af Felseneck og fra de ældste vinstokke. En puristisk stenhammer, der er uden sidestykke i Tyskland, og helt sikkert en af de mest spændende, medrivende og bedste tørre rieslinger, der nogensinde er lavet.

Mosel Fine Wines om: Riesling Final (Versteigerungswein)

The Final 2024 Riesling Trocken, as it is referred to on the front label, comes from fruit harvested in one of the oldest and steepest parts of the Bockenauer Felseneck and saw extensive aging (until August after the vintage, together with the GGs). It initially proves still hugely primary and reductive with impressive fresh and pure notes of freshly cut herbs, grilled spices, cardamom, thyme, cassis, lime tree, dill, mustard seed, flintstone, and iodine. Only after prolonged airing does it reveal very subtle and complex elements. The wine proves magnificently restrained and pure on the filigreed and impressively energetic palate. The finish is vibrating and racy and reveals salty and spicy elements. This is a sublime, racy dry Riesling.

Galloni om: Riesling Final (Versteigerungswein)

The 2024 Riesling FINAL was picked from up to 65-year-old vines rooted deep in slate and quartzite on the highest and purest reaches of the Felseneck. Flinty reduction prompts a shiver of pleasure with its smoky, lemony verve. The palate flies like an arrow into slate. This is pure and direct, with no frills. It is full of citric, stony purity and vivid energy that is so pervasive, even urgent in its trajectory, despite the undeniable svelteness. (Bone-dry)
