Acquiring and trying a bottle of Keller GG Riesling has been on my list for a while, and a great opportunity allowed me to snag this 2018 and finally see what makes this producer so highly regarded.

Enjoyed at pop, and followed over two hours.

I’m sure this could have benefitted from a decant, but part of my desire was to see how it changed from the start. Incredibly aromatic out of the glass…bright citrus and nearly tropical fruits, floral and also a unique smokiness. Texturally, this was powerful with intensity and vibrant-slaty minerality. Fresh limes and limestone wrapped in a full-bodied (for a Riesling) profile with acidity and a finish that lingered extensively. Fresh. Electric. Pure.

I didn’t notice a substantial difference at last glass vs the first, but this is still in its infancy. I can’t even fathom how good these must be with 15-20yrs on them! — a month ago

Fresh, fruity and juicy, with sweetness balanced by acidity. Low alcohol and quaffable, perfect for a warm day. Pairs exceptionally well with corned beef and cabbage. Nice find at Costco. 2023 vintage. — 2 months ago

Wow! So glad I bought a bottle of this. Funky on opening. After 2 hours it is so good. Violets, roses, cherry, baking spice is in background, there’s an earth/herbal component I cannot pinpoint. It is so drinkable but evolves with almost every sip. Need more Pinots like this in my life. — 4 months ago

Delicate nose of white flowers, stone fruit, hint of petrol; palate of peach, apricot, honey; classic; more concentration and complexity would push it higher, but it is enjoyable — 6 months ago

Kleur: Helder lichtgeel met groene reflecties.

Neus: Aroma’s van rijpe peer, citrusvruchten zoals citroen en grapefruit, aangevuld met subtiele minerale tonen.

Smaak: In de mond presenteert de wijn zich slank en verfrissend, met sappige smaken van ananas, mango en limoen. De levendige zuurgraad zorgt voor een harmonieuze balans tussen zoetheid en frisheid, typisch voor een Kabinett-stijl. 

Afdronk: Een aanhoudende, verfrissende afdronk met een minerale ondertoon en een hint van honing.

Deze Riesling is nu al geweldig lekker en zeer toegankelijk, maar heeft ook potentieel om verder te rijpen, waardoor de complexiteit en diepte in de toekomst verder zullen toenemen. — 6 months ago

These E&M wines are just stupido! What do i mean by this? Popped opened. Joined 2 bottles into one because i was not convinced/unhappy. Got close to the sink. Then decided leave in the fridge for 2 weeks. And Voilà now quite awesome. Strawberries, tart, rhubarb, ….bark, more red than Rosé. Dark, complex, orange zest, dark cherry. Would age this 2-3 years. Revisit and then decide on even more cellar time. — 5 months ago

An epic minerally wine...beautifully made and just lacking a bit of depth that will come with time. Amazing — 5 months ago
