Delicate herbal-spicy nose with thyme and a little mint, plus nasty pear and citrus notes. On the palate, taut, sparse and characterized by cool minerality. Stimulating acidity, delicate tannins, top structure despite all the finesse, grown for a long life. Location & Terroir Vineyard: The VDP.GROSSE LAGE® DOOSBERG is located on the eastern edge of the Rheingau community of Oestrich. The constant wind that prevails here is particularly beneficial in autumn, as it dries the vines after rain and fog. This protects the grapes from fungal attack. The GL DOOSBERG faces south to southwest with a 5 to 10 percent incline and is located at an altitude of 110 to 130 meters. The soils are made of carbonaceous loess clay, partly with terrace sediments. The gravel bands and the slope, which forms an inclined plane, allow the soils to store water well. The GL DOOSBERG is a Riesling site. History: The name is derived from "Dachsberg" because badgers once liked to settle in the loamy and humus-rich soils.
