Description from the seller
BLACK FRIDAY & NO RESERVE PRICE! Grans-Fassian 2006 Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Spätlese – 4 Bottles in Original Box.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a full original 4-bottles of Grans-Fassian 2006 Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Spätlese. These bottles were purchased directly from the winery and have been stored in pristine condition ever since. They are offered in their original Grans-Fassian cardboard box and will be shipped professionally, fully insured, and with utmost care.
Estate and Vineyard
Grans-Fassian is a historic family estate in Leiwen, Mosel, with a winemaking tradition dating back to 1624. Since 1982, Gerhard Grans has led the estate with a focus on producing top-quality Rieslings from the region’s most prestigious vineyards. In 2001, the estate was accepted into the VDP, the Association of German Prädikat Wine Estates, a hallmark of excellence in German viticulture. Today, the winery is managed by Catherina Grans, the 13th generation of the family, continuing a legacy of precision, purity, and terroir expression.
The Piesporter Goldtröpfchen vineyard is one of the Mosel’s most iconic sites. Classified as VDP.Grosse Lage, it is the highest designation for German vineyards. This amphitheater-shaped slope, with its steep inclines and deep Devonian slate soils, benefits from a unique microclimate that allows Riesling grapes to ripen slowly and fully. The result is wines of exceptional aromatic complexity, minerality, and longevity.
Vintage Profile – 2006 and Comparison
The 2006 vintage was marked by a normal growing season that ended with sudden rains in late September, leading to widespread botrytis. While this posed challenges, top producers like Grans-Fassian managed to craft beautifully expressive wines through careful selection. The best 2006 Spätlese wines are known for their exotic aromatics, rich texture, and vibrant acidity. They show notes of tropical fruit, almond, and spice, with a style reminiscent of the legendary 1949 vintage.
Compared to surrounding vintages:
2002 was a cooler, more classic year, producing elegant and balanced wines with great aging potential.
2003 was extremely hot and dry, resulting in powerful, ripe wines with lower acidity and shorter longevity.
2004 was a return to classic Mosel style, with high acidity, finesse, and aromatic purity.
2005 is widely regarded as a benchmark vintage, producing structured, concentrated wines with long-term cellaring potential.
2006 stands out for its opulence and charm, offering a more exotic and expressive profile, especially in the Spätlese and Auslese categories.
