Gesellmann Family G 2016

This wine combines the consistent philosophy of a traditional family estate with the precise expression of the 2016 vintage. The winery relies on organically farmed plots and strict yield control, which gives the wine a distinctive terroir and clear structure. The 2016 vintage is considered by experts to be a balanced expression, as relatively stable autumn temperatures gently promoted full ripeness without straining the natural acidity. This combination results in a bottled wine that is already convincing now and remains cellar-worthy for many years thanks to its firm structural architecture.

In tasting, it reveals a smooth body with dominant forest berry notes, enriched by subtle spicy nuances and an elegant, dry finish. The tannic component is fully integrated and no longer requires long aging; merely ten minutes of aeration fully opens the complex bouquet. The optimal drinking window is from 2019 to 2027, at which point it will confirm its rounded smoothness. This style perfectly complements moderate cheese platters, lightly grilled poultry, or hearty grain dishes, where its balance can fully unfold.
