Pettenthal is one of the Rheinhessen’s most iconic sites, a steep slope of iron-rich red slate that gives Riesling both tension and flesh. Gunderloch, a historic estate now led by Johannes Hasselbach, continues to make some of the region’s most precise and expressive Grosses Gewächs bottlings—and the 2023 Pettenthal is no exception.

This vintage shines with electric citrus—lime, grapefruit peel, and white peach—wrapped in floral lift and a clear core of wet stone and warm slate. The palate is razor-sharp but layered, with mouthwatering acidity and a salty, dry finish that goes on and on. It’s serious, but not stiff; a wine that balances power with grace. Drink now with a decant or cellar for a decade—it’s got the bones and the pedigree to go the distance.

More about Gunderloch

Johannes Hasselbach took over this Rheinhessen stalwart in 2016 and immediately started making them drier, more mineral, lower in alcohol. That's the move. The Rothenberg vineyard—which they own sixty-five percent of—produces some of Germany's finest Riesling: structured, age-worthy, full of yellow fruit and the kind of acidity that makes food sing.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
