Schloss Johannisberg

Sheer grapey deliciousness on the nose! Plus pungent mineral aromas. On the palate, the »Goldlack« displays a broad structure, carried by phenols in the mid-palate and integrated acidity, slightly yeasty on the finish, still closed, but with excellent potential.

A very youthful nose for a 2018. In fact, it needs some air to throw off the hint of oak. Then something amazing happens and delicate aromas of curry leaf and mango chutney unfold. So cool and clean for the very warm vintage, then comes the deep mineral core of the wine and the lime-zest freshness that drives the very long, wet-stone finish. Matured for 30 months in large, neutral oak. Drink or hold.
