Description from the seller
NO RESERVE PRICE – Grans-Fassian 2005 Trittenheimer Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel – 2 full size Bottles
We are proud to present a rare and highly collectible pair of Grans-Fassian 2005 Trittenheimer Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel bottles—an exceptional offering from one of Germany’s most respected producers in the Mosel Valley.
The Producer: Weingut Grans-Fassian
Founded in 1624 and located in Leiwen, Weingut Grans-Fassian is renowned for its expressive, terroir-driven Rieslings. Under the leadership of Catherina Grans, the estate continues its tradition of precision viticulture and minimal intervention winemaking, allowing the unique character of its steep, slate-rich vineyards to shine through.
Grans-Fassian is a proud member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter), Germany’s elite association of top wine estates. The VDP eagle on the capsule is a symbol of authenticity and excellence. The estate’s vineyards are classified according to strict quality standards, with the Trittenheimer Apotheke vineyard designated as a Grosse Lage, the highest classification for vineyard sites in Germany.
The Vineyard: Trittenheimer Apotheke – Grosse Lage
This steep, south-facing slope with slate soils consistently produces wines of exceptional depth, minerality, and aging potential. Its Grosse Lage status confirms its historical significance and proven ability to yield wines of the highest caliber.
The Wine: Auslese Goldkapsel – A Rare and Opulent Expression
The Goldkapsel (Goldcap) designation signifies a superior selection within the Auslese category, often from the ripest and most botrytis-affected berries. These wines are richer, more concentrated, and produced in smaller quantities, making them highly prized by collectors and connoisseurs.
The 2005 vintage is considered one of the finest in recent decades, producing wines with superb structure, ripe fruit, and outstanding longevity. This Auslese Goldkapsel showcases a deep golden hue and a complex aromatic profile of candied citrus, ripe peach, honeycomb, and subtle herbal notes, all underpinned by the signature slate minerality of the site. On the palate, it is lush and layered, with vibrant acidity balancing the natural sweetness, leading to a long, harmonious finish.
Tasting Notes from Wine Enthusiast (94 Points)
A fabulous bouquet of honeyed slate, green apples and limes is followed by flavors that are sweet yet balanced, with great freshness and racy acidity. Finishes long and mouthwatering. Not only about power, there's also elegance to spare. — Joe Czerwinski
Provenance and Condition
These bottles were imported directly from Grans-Fassian to the Czech Republic in late May 2004, as part of our long-standing relationship with the estate. As the official importer since 2003, we have ensured optimal handling and storage from the moment of arrival.
The wines have been professionally cellared in our OHMS Connoisseurs' Choice Wine Cellar, where temperature and humidity are meticulously controlled to support ideal aging conditions. Both bottles are in excellent condition, with intact capsules and well-preserved labels bearing the Grans-Fassian and VDP insignia. Fill levels are ideal, reflecting perfect storage.
Drinking Window and Collectibility
Now entering peak maturity, these Auslese Goldkapsel bottles offer a deeply rewarding drinking experience and will continue to evolve gracefully over the next 10 to 15 years. Their rarity, provenance, and elevated classification make them a compelling acquisition for collectors and serious enthusiasts alike.
Shipping and Buyer Confidence
We ship quickly, securely, and fully insured. Please refer to our customer feedback and ratings on our Catawiki.com profile for assurance of quality and service.
