"The 2010 vintage of Weingut Kellerâs Hubacker is far more open aromatically than the 2011 served alongside of it, but it is still a young wine and climbing in quality, so I would not touch a bottle for several more years. The bouquet is excellent today, jumping from the glass in a blaze of lemon custard, blood orange, a touch of smokiness, wild yeasts, lemongrass and a beautiful base of yellow limestone. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and snappy, with a very soil-driven personality, a superb core of fruit, excellent cut and grip and a long, complex and electric finish. This is a great, great wine in the making and will be one of the longest-lived Hubackers of the last dozen years."

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
