90+ John Gilman - View from the Cellar

"The 2015 Höllenpfad Trocken is another very strong effort, but the wine is a bit more bound up in its youthful structure today than the Kahlenberg and will want a year or two longer in the cellar to start to blossom. The primary bouquet delivers scents of grapefruit, lemongrass, wild yeasts, dried flowers, a touch of the vintage’s botanical overtones and gentle smokiness in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and nascently complex, with a very solid core, brisk acids and fine backend mineral drive on the long and well-balanced finish. A lovely bottle that will need a bit of time in the cellar to start to drink with generosity."
