Winemaker Notes
Delicately spicy opulence, multilayered and aromatic, wonderfully balanced, perfect with hearty dishes such as sliced veal in a cream sauce or delicious fish soup.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Goldloch GG is super clear, precise and coolish on the deep, intense and flinty nose. Dense and mineral on the pure and structured palate, this Dorsheim Riesling reveals perfectly ripe and elegant fruit with a finely structured and salty, grippy finish. Very well made and doubtlessly a great dry Riesling GG with no freaky features but everything we all like Riesling for. Juicy and salivating finish. Extremely well made.

Very complex nose of freshly chopped herbs and tart peaches. Riper on the palate than the nose suggested, but still sleek and lively with a long, elegant finish that promises so much for the future.
Riesling possesses a remarkable ability to reflect the character of wherever it is grown while still maintaining its identity. A regal variety of incredible purity and precision, this versatile grape can be just as enjoyable dry or sweet, young or old, still or sparkling and can age longer than nearly any other white variety. Somm Secret—Given how difficult it is to discern the level of sweetness in a Riesling from the label, here are some clues to find the dry ones. First, look for the world “trocken.” (“Halbtrocken” or “feinherb” mean off-dry.) Also a higher abv usually indicates a drier Riesling.
