Description

Ce vignoble exceptionnel situé au-dessus de Laubenheim forme un bassin de vallée qui s'ouvre au sud-ouest. Dans cet environnement en forme d'amphithéâtre, la chaleur est bien absorbée et stockée dans le sol. Par conséquent, les raisins sont toujours à un stade de maturité avancé et donnent un riesling puissant, épicé et fruité, avec une structure ferme et une acidité contenue.

Le lieu doit son nom à ses propriétaires de la fin du Moyen Âge, les moines chartreux silencieux.

L'avis des experts

Suckling:

What a radical riesling and what radical freshness. The soul of the samurai sword and the brilliant shine of its blade. Very sleek and focused on the medium-bodied palate, but this is the simplistic side of the wine’s description. Extremely long finish that ends in an excitingly sharp point. Drink or hold. Screw cap. - Stuart Pigott, Senior Editor. 

The Wine Advocate:

The 2023 Riesling Trocken Laubenheimer Karthäuser is deep, pure and refined but impressively intense and aromatic on the beautifully balanced and distinctive nose that intermingles concentrated, ripe fruit aromas with finely weathered terroir notes from red sandstone. Accordingly generous and juicy yet always fine and crystalline on the palate, this is a mouth-filling, as if not fully dry, yet very elegant and generous Riesling that is reminiscent of certain Saar Rieslings or those from Nackenheim (Rheinhessen). In fact, the Karthäuser was bottled with "just three or four grams per liter of residual sugar," as Martin Tesch reports on the phone. It is a complete, sensual and silky-textured Riesling with generous fruit and an exceptionally long and intense finish. This wine is made to surprise, and perhaps with 2021(?), it is on the highest level Martin (or better: his son Johannes) Tesch has reached so far. 13% stated alcohol. Stelvin screw cap. Tasted in September 2024. - Stephan Reinhardt.
