Tasting Notes

88
Vinous David Schildknecht - 01 May 17
Reflecting as usual early picking across a wide range of parcels, this bottling of only 8 percent alcohol and harboring 46 grams of residual sugar is youthfully sweet-tart in its alternation of chewy green apple skin with ripe honeydew melon. The feel is firm and the sustained finish bracingly bright, though also overtly sweet. Hopefully the wine will harmonize and acquire complexity with time.

Germany

Germany is renowned for its diverse, high-quality wines, primarily white varieties like Riesling. Thriving in cool climates and regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz, German Rieslings range from dry to sweet, showcasing vibrant acidity and minerality. Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
