Reichsrat von Buhl – 2011 – Paradiesgarten – Riesling – Grosses Gewächs

Grosses Gewächs (Grand Cru) is a designation used for top quality dry wines in most German regions (but not the Mosel or Rheingau).

A light yellow-green, and a not very giving nose. Very closed; eventually hints at white flowers and white pepper, but it’s a stretch. Clearly a serious wine, but not much going on yet. Needs a decade to come round.
