Saar Riesling from Erich Weber, who revitalized the abandoned Falkensteinerhof in Niedermennig with his wife in 1985. Their son Johannes has since joined. 13 hectares in the Tälchen—"little valley"—a side valley of the Saar. Vines average 40-50 years old, with some 60-90 years and over a hectare of ungrafted pre-phylloxera plants. Im Kleinschock sits on grey slate with quartz and quartzite-bearing sandstone. Fermentation in old oak Fuder casks with ambient yeast; minimal intervention beyond racking, light sulfur, and filtering at bottling. Converted to organic in 2021.

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!
