An intense citrus color dresses the 2013 Riesling Brand Grand Cru, which offers a deep and intense aroma of super ripe citrus aromas along with mineral flavors that reflect the steep, south-facing granite site very well. On the palate, the wine has much more freshness, finesse and purity than expected from the nose, and seems to be a flowing mountain range with a lemon taste and Mediterranean herbs in the aftertaste. This is a very persistent, salty and impressive wine for the next 15 or more years. A little bit of bottle age may help, but seems not really necessary at least at the moment of tasting in July 2015.
