Structurally full-bodied, high acidity with a long finish. Biodynamic dry Grand Cru Riesling from the basalt Forster Kirchenstuck: salty slate, herbs, dense yellow stone fruit and a very long mineral close.
Drink 8 to 30 from vintage. Young vintages benefit from 30-90 minutes of decanting; mature bottles should be handled carefully for sediment.
Roast turbot with brown butter is the canonical pairing; Aged Comte is the other strong match. Salty slate and citrus drive echo the brown butter on rich white fish.
No: the producer uses traditional animal-derived fining agents (typically egg whites or isinglass) during clarification, so the wine is not vegan.
The blend is Riesling. The wine is classified as Burklin-Wolf GC.
