Klaus Peter Keller - Morstein Riesling GG - Großes Gewächs 2006 - 0,75l

Klaus Peter Keller’s Morstein Riesling GG 2006 is a mature Grosses Gewächs from one of Rheinhessen’s most celebrated limestone sites. Renowned for its combination of power, precision and pronounced minerality, this Riesling showcases the depth and longevity that have made the Morstein vineyard a benchmark for dry German wines.

Tasting Notes
The wine has developed a luminous golden-yellow colour with signs of graceful bottle maturity. Its complex nose brings together ripe apple, citrus peel and subtle honeyed tones, complemented by mineral and lightly savoury nuances. On the palate, it is full-bodied and concentrated, with vibrant acidity providing balance and energy. The finish is long, firm and distinctly mineral, with mature Riesling complexity. At this stage, the 2006 vintage is best enjoyed now, although well-stored bottles may continue to evolve positively in the short term.

Production
Made from Riesling grown in the Morstein vineyard in Rheinhessen, a site particularly valued for its calcareous soils and ability to produce wines with both richness and mineral definition. The grapes are selected from the vineyard’s finest parcels and crafted in a dry Grosses Gewächs style, allowing the fruit, acidity and site character to take centre stage. Specific harvesting and maturation details for this bottle are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled at around 10–12°C to allow its mature aromas and mineral character to unfold. It pairs beautifully with grilled or roasted fish, shellfish, poultry in creamy sauces and mature cheeses. A short decant of 20–30 minutes can be beneficial if the wine initially appears tight, though older bottles should be handled gently and served promptly once open.
