    There is no better feeling than unearthing a little-known gem that significantly over-delivers on quality and sheer deliciousness in the glass. That’s exactly the sensation this wine imparted when we discovered it recently. Although not yet classified as a Grosses Gewächs (Grand Cru), all of the fruit for this ‘Village’ wine comes from a Grosses Gewächs vineyard – this is a Grand Cru in all but name. An ultimate perfectionist, Ernst Loosen won’t designate this wine as a Grosses Gewächs until the vines have reached the age that he considers necessary at this quality level. So, for the next five years, the Graacher Village will continue to fly under the radar and deliver exceptional value for money. Packed with bright lemon and Granny Smith apple notes on the nose, the palate is dense and concentrated with flavours of pithy citrus fruit and fuzzy apricots. Fresh, crystalline acidity and a hint of saline minerality keeps everything in balance, leading to a poised, refined finish.
