Bassermann-Jordan Forster Jesuitengarten Riesling Trocken Grosses Gewächs 2019 (750ml) *

Grosses Gewächs is Germany's designation for a dry wine drawn from a top-classified vineyard site, and this Riesling comes from the Jesuitengarten in Forst, one of the Pfalz's storied parcels. Bottled by Bassermann-Jordan, the 2019 is fermented fully dry (Trocken), the style meant to show the character of a single site rather than any sweetness, and Pfalz Riesling tends toward a riper, more expansive fruit profile than its cooler counterparts further north, framed by the firm acidity the grape is known for.
