Weingüter Wegeler - Geheimrat "J", Riesling trocken 2021

JAMES SUCKLING: "A very exciting dry Rheingau riesling that is so cool and energetic, but has enormous depth and structure, yet it is also so polished and precise. So sleek and filigree with gigantic wet stone minerality at the very long, mountain stream-pure finish. Drink from release."

FALSTAFF: "Floral, zitrisch, Pfirsich, Gesteinsmehl, Jod, im Mund knackig. geradezu Starkstrom, noch sehr kompakt, alles dicht ineinander gefügt, straffe Phenolik, sehr dicht und packend, durchaus auch mit geschmeidigen Motiven im Hintergrund, terpenherb und extraktgetragen abklingend, immens potenzialreich."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2021 Riesling trocken Geheimrat J shows a white gold color and a deep, intense and raisiny nose. Pure and salty on the concentrated, tightly drawn and bone-dry palate, the 2021 Geheimrat develops a firm, enormously long-lasting finish with fine, tonic bitter notes. If you don't have the patience to cellar this wine, you should aerate it sufficiently before drinking. Tasted as part of the big Geheimrat J vertical in Wiesbaden, January 2024."
