Riesling Love

Ungehheuer GG in Forst is one of the most important Riesling vineyards in Germany. In 1869, Ungeheuer was served at the opening of the Suez Canal and already had admirers such as Goethe and Otto von Bismarck.

Sandstone, limestone and basalt are found in the soil on the slope above Forst. Ungeheuer GG is intense and mineral with a refined and elegant nose. Aromas such as grass, apricot, orange peel, melon and hints of vanilla come to your nose after some time in the glass. In the mouth it is full and creamy. Its acidity, minerality, metallicity and saltiness are distinct. This wine is really tasty and balanced. Another plus is the possibility of aging, beyond ten years. Pair it with hearty dishes, such as baked pork, crabs and grilled tuna.
