Tasting profile

GB Sauvage is Georg Breuer's introductory dry Riesling, blended from several of the estate's Rheingau sites and fermented in stainless steel. It is steely and citrus-driven, with green apple, white peach and a stony, slightly herbal edge. A young bottle can show a little reductive, yeasty character that clears with air or a year in bottle.
