Parker about Grande Réserve 2020
From the finest barrels of the Réserve wines from Sauvignon Blanc (60%) and Chardonnay (40%) that were aged for 30 months on the lees, the 2020 Grande Réserve is beautifully deep, intense and refined, with concentrated and elegant fruit aromas intermingled with lemon, noble smoke, oak and iodine aromas. Full-bodied, rich and fresh on the palate, this is a powerful and athletic white that is fresh and beautifully aromatic on the finish, with concentrated yellow stone fruit aromas. The acidity is ripe, elegant and perfectly interwoven with the body and texture this exceptional beauty with a long, complex, fresh, saline and savory finish. Bottled in May 2023 with 13% stated alcohol, this is Gesine Roll's greatest wine so far. Natural cork. Tasted in August 2023.
Suckling over Grande Réserve 2020
An astonishingly complex nose of exotic herbs and spices and an energy that's uncommon in this warm and ripe vintage. Stunning concentration and vitality, but also a fabulous interplay of flinty freshness and a precisely judged creaminess. The textural complexity at the very long finish is a joy to experience. A revolutionary cuvee of 60% sauvignon blanc and 40% chardonnay. Fermented and matured in a mix of small oak and one large neutral oak cask where it spent 30 months on the lees. Drink or hold.
