KÜHLING-GILLOT, PETTENTHAL, GG, RHEINHESSEN, 2007

I am really impressed by the nose of this wine. In this stage the nose dominated by the spontaneous fermentation, however it is combined with a touch of steel, sulfur, herbs and apricots underneath. Beautiful! Again a wine on the heavy site – although I find much more balance in direct comparison to Kirchenstück. It has a creamy soft dancing texture with just a little touch of the lanolin. The taste is a little sweet with mandarin and pineapple. I feel a little touch of alcohol in the finish (only drawback).

16.0/20 (the nose alone 17/20)

Served at the big dry German GG 2007 tasting - se http://german-wines.blogspot.com/2008/11/up-coming-tasting.html
