"The 2019 Rüdesheimer Berg Rottland Riesling trocken GG (Grosses Gewächs) opens with a deep, pure, intense and complex bouquet of perfectly ripe fruits intertwined with spicy and iodine terroir notes that give a certain coolness. Full-bodied, intense and round yet always pure and refined, with crystalline minerality and an elegant finish, this is one of the finest Rieslings of the vintage for Josi Leitz and his team. The finish is pure, intense and tensioned, with persistent crystalline and saline acidity. It has a very long and aromatic as well as structural aftertaste. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in June 2022." 94pts -- Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate

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!
