James Suckling: 98 Points

A giant Spätlese that?s packed to the gills with peach and berry fruit salty minerality and supernaturally vibrant acidity. Such complexity that it?s hard to express in such a string of adjectives. Breathtaking freshness at the finish. Decades of aging potential. Drink or hold.

The 2020 Halenberg GG is pure precise and fresh on the nose that offers flinty notes of crushed stones herbs and lemons. Crystalline refined and juicy on the palate this is a dense and intense tightly structured and persistently salty Halenberg with fine tannins and great purity. Tasted from a bottle that was opened three days before the bouquet is deep and intense but pure and salty with ripe lemon and crushed stone aromas. The palate is full dense and tight with serious tannin structure and lingering salinity. The combination of both wines is amazing and combines purity and freshness with complexity and elegance. The salty finish is the leitmotiv of all three versions. 12.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021.
