Bassermann Jordan - Riesling Kalkofen Grosses Gewächs 2018

ANTONIO GALLONI: "Grapefruit, sweet corn and passion fruit on the nose reprise on a polished palate that is especially juicy and lusciously fruit-dominated by Grosses Gewächs standards. (I am not complaining!) White pepper and oregano accents serve for stimulating counterpoint on a generously persistent finish. With time, this may well gain in stature, in particular revealing some minerally characteristics."

THE WINEADVOCATE: "Bassermann's 2018 Riesling GG Kalkofen "VDP. Grosse Lage" is very clear, fine, pure and elegant on the chalky nose. Silky textured, refined and highly elegant on the palate, this Kalkofen reveals juicy fruit with fine tannins and a long and intense, mineral finish. Very promising and highly stimulating in its crystalline salinity. Tasted in Deidesheim in December 2019."

WEINWISSER: "Zum Ausklang der Top-Basser mann- Parade ein weicher, etwas kalkiger Duftausdruck mit Mürbe teig, reifem Apfel und Gelbfrucht. Der Deidesheimer erscheint weicher als die Forster Lagen, mit kalktypischer pikant-mineralischer Säure im Finale. Braucht etwas Zeit."
