Winemaking Von Winning Ungeheuer GG Riesling 2020 is a Grand Cru (Grosses Gewächs) dry Riesling from the iconic Ungeheuer vineyard in the Pfalz region. Meticulously hand-harvested, fermented spontaneously, and matured in traditional oak casks, this wine expresses the depth, tension and mineral structure of its historic site. It’s a dry Riesling of serious complexity, built to evolve over time.
Bouquet Powerful and precise with aromas of ripe lime, white peach, flint and wild herbs. Hints of orange blossom, beeswax and wet slate offer both elegance and intensity.
Palate Focused and textural, the palate delivers concentrated citrus and stone fruit layered with savoury minerality and fine phenolic grip. The acidity is vibrant yet seamlessly integrated, driving a long, dry finish marked by smoky spice and saline precision.
Food Pairing Outstanding with fresh oysters, grilled scallops or pork belly with apple. Also pairs beautifully with Thai cuisine, smoked fish, or roast poultry with herbs.
Cellaring Structured to age gracefully for 10–15 years or more. Enjoy now for its youthful tension or cellar to unlock deeper layers of complexity.
Interesting Fact The Ungeheuer vineyard has been renowned since the 19th century—so much so that Otto von Bismarck once proclaimed: “This Ungeheuer tastes monstrous!” Today, it remains one of the Pfalz’s most revered sites for dry Riesling.
