Ungeheurer Riesling G.C. 2022 Dr. Burklin-Wolf

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (97)

The 2022 Ungeheuer G.C. is pure, very clear and intense on the slightly reductive nose that intermingles iodine and flinty notes with ripe Riesling aromas and some citric nuances. Silky, refined but dense and concentrated on the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich and concentrated, enormously saline and viral, salivating and tannic Riesling with a bitter finish. This wine deserves our patience. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in November 2023.

James Suckling (99)

The radical structure is wrapped in fabulous richness to create a wonderfully captivating whole. Yes, this has deep stone fruit and orange aromas, but at the moment this is the least obvious side of this embryonic masterpiece. The almost supernatural energy in here is very hard to wrap your head around and it will take this giant a while to open up. Mind-blowingly long and intense finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Wild-fermented in large neutral oak. Vegan. Drink or hold.
