Georg Breuer Terra Montosa Rheinghau Riesling 2007


Plenty to like about this wine. Straw appearance with river stones coming through on the nose – very mineral. The longer in the glass a faint hint of lime cordial was also noticed. The palate is very lean and dry with acid being the dominant attribute with lime again being noticed at the end.

We had this with some pan seared Rockling over dinner, but I opened this at lunch and had a wee glass with some twice cooked eggs, or slow cooked eggs and it was a dead-set Susan match.

Great balance, super length with layers of complexity.
