“Blue slate, 60-year-old vines.Charming, open, generous and bodacious. Some tropical citrus, papaya and, routing grooves through all that plump fruit, grippy, firm, determined acidity. So much acidity! Exuberant. You could gulp this now, easily, but it also has long-term stamina.“Tasted by Tamlyn Currin,
wine writer for Jancis Robinson17/20

“Ripe peach and apricot aromas, kumquat. Straightforward, and generous juiciness with hints of sweetness and a mildly bitter and stony backbone.”

The powerful juiciness ofGrans-Fassian’s Apotheke Grand Cru Riesling dry is pure pleasure on the palate. The fruity blend of white peach, aromatic apricot and exotic passion fruit flavours compliment this Grand Cru’s fine acidic structure, which gives this wine a complex and elegant note. In the finish, the juicy nature of this lively wine is particularly accentuated, revealing the tension and density of its character.
