Description

Product description for Tement Ried Zieregg Sauvignon Blanc Vinothek Reserve, Große STK Lage 2017

Ried Zieregg is home to numerous microclimates. Over the years, the Tement winery has increasingly broken down this site designation into smaller parcels, which, viewed individually, provide an even better perspective on the terroir. The basis for the Vinothek Reserve bottling is the “seven rows” parcel, which is extremely steep and windy. The steepest part of the entire Zieregg site is barren here and offers the most extreme conditions. The Vinothek Reserve bottling is only found in outstanding vintages. As with all Tement site wines, the aging process is extremely patient and slow. The wines are allowed to rest on the fine lees for a full 30 months in neutral oak. Bottling takes place without filtration.

Nose

A phenomenal wine stands before us in the glass. It rests completely within itself and proudly lets its greatness shine through. It fluctuates between fruity and vegetal aromas. On the one hand, this is expressed in the perfection of grapefruit, passion fruit, peach, and ripe pear. On the other hand, it shows us artichoke, pea, and fennel. These two groups of aromas are in constant alternation. Fruit. Bitterness. Lightness. And from the front… Behind this, it seems profound and clearly reminiscent of Sencha tea. Full of intensity and lightness at the same time. Subtle. The bitterness can be sensed. The characteristics of grape skins can also be recognized. Plenty of fresh herbs, such as lemon balm, lemon thyme, and parsley, stand out here. Coriander also plays a leading role. The seeds of these herbs underscore the intentions. In hints, it reveals its bready, doughy side in the background. This reference to the long time on the yeasts is complemented by the delicate impression of cold smoke.

Palate

Wow. A great wine with plenty of power and density awaits us. Pure salted caramel. The clear impression of licking wet stones. The fruit is completely suppressed. It is sublime and broad. Powerful in its appearance. At the same time, it raises itself to a pedestal of elegance and tranquility. Expansive and captivating. An absolute bombshell that cannot be ignored. It continues with this intensity. The pressure slowly dissipates, giving the fruity and vegetal nuances a chance to emerge. The herbs provide plenty of freshness, which significantly revitalizes it. In the background, it is earthy and dark in its own subtle way. Light spices like allspice and white pepper take it up a notch. The finish is enormously salty. The aromatics then reappear one after the other. A wine close to perfection.
