Note di degustazione
The 2014 Riesling Clos Windsbuhl is again a great Riesling, although it is still closed and hidden under limestone rocks (bottled end of February 2016). However, it opens with an intense and concentrated but also fresh, fine and transparent lemon flavor intermixed with the powder of crushed stones. Full-bodied, round and elegant, with 9.1 grams of residual sugar and 12.52% of alcohol, the 2014 is packed with ripe and juicy fruits. There is also grip and tension due to vibrant acidity and low pH (8.5/2.9). This is a tightly woven and airy structured Riesling with a silky texture, great finesse and fine tannin structure. Very promising.

Lots to chew on. Still very youthful and bone dry. Quite uncompromising. Essence of young, dry Riesling. (JR)
pH 2.9, RS 10 g/l, TA 5.5 g/l (sulphuric). Sweetness code 1 = technically dry or tastes dry. Soft pale gold. Spiced, smoky citrus. A little peachy too, and lime – complex already. Acid/RS currently giving a sweet/sour effect though I think it will become better integrated. An ususal ability to be both very crisp and silky. The long aftertaste has a hint of rose petals and orange. (JH)
