Tasting Notes
Delightful fragrance of acacia blossom and spring flowers may lead you to believe that this is going to be a pussycat of a trocken, but on the palate the dry estate Riesling is quite taut, fresh with acidity and almost like licking a salt cube.
The grapes for this blend came from the Stein and Stielweg sites in Hochheim, both classified as Erste Lagen (top sites), and St Kiliansberg in Kostheim and 40% of the wine was made in large old oak casks. The residual sugar is just over 6 g/l, as is the total acidity, making a fine well-balanced, very approachable whole.
