Tasting Notes

Vinous David Schildknecht - 01 Jul 19
Sourced (like its vintage 2016 predecessor) from Kirchspiel and to a much lesser degree from Abtserde, this delivers ripe apple and kiwi on the nose as well as in juicy profusion on a buoyant, polished, subtly glossy palate. The consummately refreshing, vibrantly tingling finish – with its invigorating suggestions of lime zest and kiwi seed – reveals impeccably judged sweetness and is strikingly transparent to chalky, stony nuances as well as laced with saliva-liberating salinity.

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.
