Schloss Johannisberger Grunlack Riesling Spatlese 2020 (PR: 93)

Weinbau-Domane Schloss Johannisberg是德國萊茵高(Rheingau)地區的酒莊。自1720年起，就專門種植Riesling，被視為是世界上第一個這樣做的酒莊。
酒莊在第二次世界大戰被摧毀，在1965年重建並恢復了昔日的光輝，於1971年成為德國法定的葡萄酒產區。
Schloss Johannisberger坐落在陶努斯(Taunus)山脈東南部的其中一座石英岩山丘之上，土壤蘊含石英岩，非常適合種植Riesling。葡萄酒在具備溫度控制的不銹鋼缸，以及利用附近森林的橡木所製成的大型橡木桶發酵。然後，葡萄酒會浸渣陳年一段長時間，以增加深度和層次。

酒體精確細膩，具有鮮明、精緻的果香和火石般的香氣，在碎石的感覺中散發出白桃的甜香。口感非常優雅、乾淨明亮，是一款令人激發熱情的Spätlese，具有極高的精確度和技巧，餘韻帶有鹹感。現在已經很好喝，酒精度8%。(於2021年7月品飲)

Weinbau-Domane Schloss Johannisberg is an estate in the Rheingau region of Germany. It has exclusively grown Riesling grapes since 1720, and is thought to be the first estate in the world to have done so.
The estate was ruined during World War II, but was rebuilt and restored to its former glory in 1965. Schloss Johannisberg became a designated wine appellation under German law in 1971.
Schloss Johannisberg sits on one of three quartzite hills southeast of the Taunus mountain range. The soils here are quartzite rich, which is well-suited to the Riesling that occupies the vineyards. Wines are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, as well as large oak casks made from oak sourced from the nearby Schloss Johannisberger forest. During the aging process, the wines spend a significant time on their lees, in order to increase complexity.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 93 points)
The 2020 Riesling Spätlese Grünlack is precise and fine on the bright and delicately fruity and flinty nose that shows white peach aromas along with some flinty notes of crushed stones. Very elegant and crystalline on the palate, this is a stimulating Spätlese with great precision and finesse. The finish is stimulatingly salty and piquant. Excellent already today. 8% alcohol. Tasted in July 2021.
