A favorite of Stephen Bitterolf. "...a bone-dry wine (with 1.6 g/l of residual sugar) made from 50-year-old vines on single pole in the terraced part of the Wolfer Goldgrube and was left for 1 year on its gross lees. It has a captivating nose of anise, ginger, herbs, jasmine, prune, licorice, and thyme. The wine shows great concentration and depth on the palate, where herbal and spicy elements add a playful and refreshing side. There is a light touch of phenolic presence, but it is not disturbing and adds presence and just needs a little bit of aging to fully integrate. What a superb fully dry Riesling." – Mosel Fine Wines, No. 62, June 2022

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!
