Dr. von Bassermann-Jordan, Riesling Forster Pechstein GG 2025

A more fragrant and open-knit Pechstein than Bürklin-Wolf's or Acham-Magnin's. There's still an unmistakable flinty minerality here, dominating the aromatic profile before giving way to the peach and apricot notes beneath. A flavorful and expansive palate impression with gunflint notes lingering on the finish.

Scored on a five-star scale, where a plus is a third of a star. How I score and what I disclose is set out in my ethics and disclosure policy. More notes are in the review index, and the regional background is in Wine in Germany.
