Here is conclusive proof that certain vineyard sites in Germany can play in the global big leagues for Chardonnay. Enormously concentrated and minerally, this is amazingly focused and pristine on the very compact medium-bodied palate. So much energy at the finish. This surely has decades of aging potential ahead of it. From the Karthäuser GG site, which has a very stony limestone soil. Drink or hold.
