Grans-Fassian Estate 2009 Riesling

By sowiwi | February 14, 2015

Grans-Fassian estate is one of a top Riesling producer from the Mosel, Germany. This 2009 Riesling offers golden yellow with greenish color. Very floral and honey suckles aroma. On the palate, orange zest, salty type of mineral flavor. I did not get much of fresh fruit taste. There is hint of sweetness but its dry side. It has complex and last longing flavor. Very nice Mosel Riesling and inexpensive. From the price this should be in the fridge at all times. Works perfectly with cracker with cheese appetizer.
