Jb Becker Riesling Spatlese Trocken / Dry Wallufer Walkenberg, Alte Reben
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | ***. Hans-Joseph Becker (call him HaJo) produces incredibly age-worthy, dry Rieslings from the Rheingau. They are unflaggingly honest and present a vocabulary that few Rieslings can match: dried earth and rocks, herbs, something vaguely subterranean, a savory, briny, smoky atmosphere that slowly reveals fine layers of bright citrus. Beckers white wines are like Becker himself: angular, with muscle and sinew pulled tightly over a lean frame. They flaunt a rather prominent acidity that recalls the nervier wines of the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer; though there is a weight and a density that speaks of the Rheingau. They seem to have more to do with great Chablis than with German Riesling. |
