2017 Siefersheim HEERKRETZ Riesling Grosses Gewächs Q.b.A. trocken Wagner-Stempel, Rheinhessen (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2017 Siefersheim HEERKRETZ Riesling Grosses Gewächs Q.b.A. trocken, Wagner-Stempel

Picked at 92° Oechsle and 11+ grams per liter of acidity, the 2017 Riesling Heerkretz GG is pure yet intense and freaky on the nose. The palate is pure and juicy, with a very intense and enormously salty, long and tensioned finish. Tasted in March 2020. - Stephan Reinhardt, Mai 2020

Wine Spectator - 2017 Siefersheim HEERKRETZ Riesling Grosses Gewächs Q.b.A. trocken, Wagner-Stempel

Enticing, with a silky mouthfeel and charming aromas of rose petal and lychee, while the palate exhibits an exotic mix of elderflower, roasted peach, tangerine and lemon zest flavors. Clean and fresh, showing a youthful attack, as well as great complexity and length. Give this time to harmonize fully. Best from 2022 through 2032.

Vinous - 2017 Siefersheim HEERKRETZ Riesling Grosses Gewächs Q.b.A. trocken, Wagner-Stempel

White peach, apple and lime are accented by their pits and pits as well as by raw almond on an enticing nose highly reminiscent of that exhibited by the corresponding 2016. Scents of Ceylon tea and spring beauty (Claytonia) add inner-mouth allure. The feel is flatteringly silken, notwithstanding the persistence of stimulating piquancy. Infectious juiciness, along with an invigoratingly tactile, active sense of crystalline stony impingement, dramatically sets this wine’s vibrant, bell-clear finish apart from that of its Höllberg sibling.
