AJ Adam - Riesling Grosses Gewachs Has'Chen 2021
A View from the Cellar: 93 Points
The Häs’chen Grosses Gewächs bottling was fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel this year. The wine comes in at twelve percent octane and delivers a refined bouquet of tart orange, pink grapefruit, wild yeasts, lemongrass, dried flowers and salty slate minerality. On the palate the wine is pure, precise and fullish, with a lovely core, excellent mineral drive, bright, seamless acidity and lovely length and grip on the still quite youthful, but very promising finish. Like the 2021 Hofberg GG, this has lovely potential, but will demand some cellaring before it is truly ready to drink. - John Gilman
