This the most balanced, most classic Fogolar Riesling from the 2023's I've tasted. Fresh, light on its feet, filled with energy and well layered. At 12g/l of residual sugar, and fermented in a split of stainless steel and oak barrels, this wine has everything. 

 

Purity on the nose with aromas of lemon pie, wild flower, gooseberry, fresh yellow apple and a hint of ginger. The palate is very graceful and perfectly built. Flavours of zesty lime, green apple, lemon meringue and an array of evolving spice on the finish. Speaking of the finish, the stony and chalky minerality lingers forever. A spectacular wine and very well made.

 

Picone Vineyard should be considered a Grand Cru site for Riesling, and this is a prime example of why. It is also amazing to taste side by side other Rieslings from the same site, but different blocks, as a horizontal. (Carl Boucher, 12/07/26).
