Few designations in German wine carry as much prestige as GG – Grosses Gewächs. Reserved exclusively for dry wines from the very finest VDP.GROSSE LAGE® vineyards, GG represents the pinnacle of German winemaking and is widely regarded as Germany’s equivalent of a Grand Cru. Only wines from exceptional sites and produced under the strictest quality standards may bear this coveted classification.

The 2024 Grainhübel Deidesheim Riesling GG from Dr. von Bassermann-Jordan is a remarkable expression of one of Deidesheim’s historic top vineyards. The Grainhübel site, with its sandstone, loam, and limestone-influenced soils, produces Rieslings of impressive depth, elegance, and minerality. The 2024 vintage combines vibrant citrus and stone-fruit aromas with fine structure, precise acidity, and a long, refined finish that promises excellent aging potential.

What makes this wine truly extraordinary is its exclusivity. Having a Grosses Gewächs produced exclusively for the BASF Wine Cellar is a rare privilege and a testament to the long-standing relationship between BASF and one of Germany’s most respected wineries. GG wines are typically produced in limited quantities and highly sought after by collectors and connoisseurs; securing a bespoke bottling from such a prestigious classification is an exceptional honor and a highlight of any wine collection.
