Note di degustazione
The 2021 Halenberg Riesling GG is coolish, fresh, pure, extraordinarily deep and complex on the ripe and concentrated yet precise nose that reveals notes of crushed stones and iodine. Powerful, rich and complex on the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense and very intense Riesling with a concentrated fruit core and a firm (mineral) structure that holds and even uplifts this giant that a will develop into an iconic German Riesling over the years in the bottle. It is still tight and youthful but possibly the greatest Halenberg I have tasted in more than 20 years. Natural cork. 12.5% stated alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in August 2022.

A little more obviously sulphidic (sulphides not SO 2 ) than the Frühlingsplätzchen, and the fumy quality of spontaneous ferment. Hard to tell what is terroir and what is winemaking. Intense, lime and grapefruit purity. Both intense and restrained at the same time. Very long. (JH)
Even more floral in the nose than the Frühlingsplätzchen. Deep and rich, with ripe fruit on the palate giving way to spicy, edgy acidity and lingering spicy finish. Citrus, salt and a mint-driven lift. Despite its richness, Halenberg presents as more structured and austere. A Riesling powerhouse both now and for a long time to come. (PS)
The vibrant white-peach, wild-herb and floral bouquet of this stunning GG makes a serious statement. Very compact and concentrated, it’s only just beginning to reveal its abundant treasures. Super-focused and precise, it grows and grows as it shoots over the palate at great speed. Incredible depth of wet-stone minerality at the super-long finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2025.
