The 2019 Schlossberg Riesling is significantly different compared to 2018. It has a much purer, fresher and more reductive nose where spicy phenolic notes are displayed along with notes of crushed stones and white fruits aromas. Lush and intense on the palate, this is surprisingly another rich and textured Schlossberg from Trapet. The acidity is ripe and crystalline and intertwined with elegant tannins that are well integrated into the rich texture of this full-bodied and elegantly powerful Schlossberg that reveals a saline and tensioned finish with promising length. Its still very young but also a step forward compared to the vintages before, and thats not because of more alcohol but more precision, purity and freshness. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2023.
