The medium-golden colored 2020 Bernkasteler Lay Riesling GG shows an intense, dense and elegant nose of ripe fruits intermingled with iodine and slate aromas and lemon notes. Lush and elegant on the palate, with fine tannins and serious grip, this is a dense and fleshy yet also savory and grippy Lay with charming fruit intensity. Still young, this is a wine to be cellared for another three or more years. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork stopper. Tasted from AP 1622 in December 2022.

Mosel is a wine region located in Germany, known for producing some of the finest Riesling wines in the world. The region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Roman times. The steep slopes along the Mosel River provide ideal conditions for growing grapes, with the slate soil and cool climate contributing to the unique character of the wines.

The production of Mosel wines is characterised by a focus on quality over quantity, with many vineyards practicing organic and biodynamic farming methods. The wines are typically light-bodied, with high acidity and a distinct minerality. The Riesling grape is the most widely planted in the region, and is used to produce a range of styles from dry to sweet.

The Mosel region is divided into six sub-regions, each with its own distinct terroir and style of wine. The most famous of these is the Bernkasteler Doctor, a vineyard known for producing some of the most expensive and sought-after Riesling wines in the world. Other notable sub-regions include the Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, the Ürziger Würzgarten, and the Graacher Himmelreich.

Overall, Mosel wines are highly regarded for their complexity, elegance, and ability to age gracefully. They are a must-try for any wine enthusiast looking to explore the world of Riesling.
