The 2017 Heymann-Löwenstein Röttgen Riesling GG is a distinguished German white wine from the Mosel region, renowned for its exceptional quality and unique characteristics. The Röttgen vineyard's shale soils impart distinctive mineral notes, adding complexity and depth to its taste. The 2017 vintage in Germany was smaller than usual due to severe spring frosts and a hot, dry summer, which sped up the vegetative process and brought intense periods of drought. Despite these challenges, the wine showcases a vibrant acidity balanced with a subtle sweetness. Tasting notes reveal a bright golden yellow color. The aroma is multifaceted and intense, with tones of exotic fruits, delicate nuances of citrus, ripe pears, raspberries, and coffee. On the palate, it offers juicy, balanced fruity tones of passion fruit and grapefruit, notes of raspberries and coffee, with excellent structure, balanced acidity, and a seductive, refreshing aftertaste. Other descriptions include white fruit, lemon, and mineral notes, with a hint of petrol developing with age. 【 A unique white dry wine from noble Riesling grapes grown on shale soils 】.
