Lot Description: Two Bottles of Iconic 2005 Grans-Fassian Riesling - VDP.Grosse Lage - Spätlese Trocken "S"
This is an exceptional offering of two perfectly-aged, top-tier 2005 Rieslings from the Mosel estate Weingut Grans-Fassian. With a history in winemaking dating back to 1624, Grans-Fassian is one of the Mosel's most respected producers and a proud member of the elite VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter) since 2001. The VDP eagle on the capsule is a guarantee of quality that surpasses national wine laws.
The 2005 vintage is celebrated for its concentration and structure, creating dry Rieslings that are now in a magnificent stage of maturity.
The Wines: Grand Cru Quality and Special Selection
You are bidding on one bottle each from two of the estate's most important steep-slope vineyards: Dhron Hofberger and Leiwener Laurentiuslay.
* Both of these sites are today officially classified by the VDP as Grosse Lage (Grand Cru), the absolute highest category for German vineyards.
* These wines were produced under the historic designation Spätlese trocken "S". The Spätlese (Late Harvest) term indicates the grapes were picked with the high must weight and concentration required for a great, age-worthy wine. Trocken (dry) confirms the wine was fully fermented, resulting in a powerful, mineral-driven style. The "S" (Special Selection) marks them as the estate's finest dry offering of the time, the direct predecessor to today's VDP.Grosses Gewächs (GG).
Individual Wine Profiles:
* 2005 Grans-Fassian Dhron Hofberger Riesling - trocken "S": Sourced from the Mosel's rare Red Slate (Rotliegend) terroir. This is an elegant powerhouse, showing immense structure, spice, and profound minerality that speaks of the unique composition of the Dhron valley.
* 2005 Grans-Fassian Leiwener Laurentiuslay Riesling - Spätlese - trocken "S": Sourced from the classic Blue Slate (Devonian slate) soils. This wine embodies the quintessential Mosel elegance and finesse, offering crystalline acidity, pure fruit, and extraordinary length.
These perfectly-aged bottles offer complex notes of petrol, dried herbs, and deep citrus, balanced by the vibrant acidity of the Mosel.
Provenance and Condition
These bottles boast exclusive provenance. They were shipped directly from the Grans-Fassian estate to the OHMS Connoisseurs Choice professional wine cellar, guaranteeing they have been stored under optimal, temperature and humidity-controlled conditions since release. This direct source confirms their impeccable authenticity.
