Bastei GG 2012

 

„Karsten Peter works exclusively with “Grand Cru” sites (Gut Hermannsberg only owns vines in sites classified as GROSSE LAGE/“Grand Cru” by the VDP) and has developed a series of wines that perfectly express the terroir richness of the Nahe region. From the 2012 vintage two wines are particularly impressive: the Bastei –a complex and concentrated Riesling, that grows in an amphitheater-like vineyard on volcanic rhyolite, and the Kupfergrube – a very focused Riesling with the energy of a laser beam.“

 

Both these wines are VDP GGs and for Wine & Spirits Magazine the 2012 Bastei GG is also one of the 100 Best Wines of the Year 2016. The 30th Annual Buying Guide has been online since 17.10.2016.
