Bockenauer Stromberg—100% weathered volcanic porphyry, almost no soil, Tim Fröhlich's most barren and steepest site (40-70% grade). Vines here range from 45 to over 100 years old; many are 80-90 years. This is extreme viticulture yielding concentrated, mineral Riesling. Wild yeast fermentation, hand-harvested by necessity on these slopes. The volcanic character here is more intense than the Felsenberg; this is the purer expression of volcanic terroir. Pre-arrival; September 2026.

"The 2024 Riesling Bockenauer Stromberg Grosses Gewächs was largely made from 100-year-old vines (Fröhlich's oldest) rooted in porphyry. Its flinty reduction is perfumed with crushed passion fruit foliage and chervil. This has sinus-clearing lift and absolute poise. The palate is taut, bright and concentrated, with an immense zestiness of tangerine and grapefruit notes. They tingle with aroma and yet this has the firmest, sveltest core. The 2024 is thrilling, pure, long, pervasive and otherworldly." —Anne Krebiehl, MW

Robert Parker

"The 2024 Stromberg GG shows subtle reduction on the nose but also ripe, elegant and very juicy fruit with delicate honey tones and typical spice from the volcanic soil. Elegant and delicate on the palate, with considerable body, this is a very mineral, compactly structured, long, intense and powerful-finishing Riesling that still needs a lot of time to develop." —Stephan Reinhardt

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!
