Remarks: Warmer spring. Wetter start of summer was balanced by very dry January,
which led to an expectation of rare combination of quantity and quality.
However, it was met by never-seen-before rain events in usually dry February,
then rescued by relatively dry March. About 80% of the whole crop was left
unpicked after the harvest for dry Riesling. Roughly 20% of these was
painstakingly sorted out, which brought surprising level of sugar and acidity.
This rare level of combination may not be seen too often, hence ‘Gold
Capsule’.
