Graacher Domprobst Riesling Grosses Gewächs (Grand Cru) 2021
The great Riesling Graacher Domprobst from a very steep site on the Mosel shows a light golden yellow with green reflections. The nose is complex and convincing with notes of peach, discreet pear, mineral nuances of slate, fresh earth and herbal spice. On the palate, the Riesling is melting, creamy, finesse-rich and very elegant with a fine sweetness-acidity play. The fruit sweetness balances the fresh acidity very successfully. It convinces in structure, length and enjoyment potential.

The vineyard Domprobst, which faces south-southwest, is very steep and well protected from wind and frost by its topography, is the heart of the Graach vineyards. Selbach-Oster's Grand Cru Riesling is rich in extract and well structured. The Devonian slate soil characterises the Riesling with herbaceous and earthy tones. Only the must of healthy grapes from the best plots ferments spontaneously in used barrels. The wine remains on the full lees for at least twelve months. Its intensity and expression combined with its racy liveliness are impressive.
