Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2023 Forst Village Riesling trocken is deep, cool and fresh on the elegant, substantial and saline nose that shows ripe and concentrated bright fruit with delicate flinty notes. Rich and powerful and with apparent rather smooth acidity, this is a full-bodied and intense Riesling with a savory, still edgy and quite powerful yet also complex and mineral finish. It will gain in finesse and elegance with further bottle age. 12% stated alcohol. Screw-cap closure. Tasted at the domaine in January 2025.

Winemaking
Description
Dr. Bürklin - Wolf Forster Riesling is the whitevillage wine that embodies the essence of the winery's winemaking tradition. This Riesling comes from young plots in the Jesuitengarten and Pechstein grand crus, grown on soils of calcareous marl, sandstone and volcanic basalt. These unique geological soils form the basis of the vineyards and give the wine its distinctive characteristics.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested selectively at the end of September, obtaining a yield of 50-55hl/ha for the plots destined for this Riesling. The wine has an alcohol content of 12.0%, an acidity of 5.5 g/l and a residual sweetness of 1.6 g/l.
Taste
Dr. Bürklin - Wolf Forster Riesling is a fascinating dry Riesling. Despite having a ripe, concentrated nose, it is not particularly aromatic or fruity. Instead, it is dominated by stony and flinty notes that offer a fresh impression and some vegetal notes representing the vintage. On the palate, it is pure, lean and very salty. Its concentration and intensity are balanced by a linear elegance, offering a dry wine with a classic, straightforward style.
