BASTEI Riesling Grosses Gewächs

Traiser Bastei is one of the most spectacular vineyards in the world. Like an amphitheater, the red rock encloses a small stage on which only the Riesling brings such impressive results. Out of our 7 vineyards, our “Bastei” vineyard is our warmest where ancient vines grow, and their roots reach deep into the hard rhyolite rock.

A wine can hardly taste as mineral as the “Bastei GG”. Flint and herbal aromas give this wine its incredible complexity. It has a great tension and at the same time an embracing warmth of ripe fruity aromas. Like a firework, not overburdened but sublime. This will be an extremely great wine in 10, or better said in 15 years. Nonetheless, it is already a brilliant Riesling.
