"This is quite primary and rather closed, but offers already delicious sappy notes of peach, passion fruit, banana and lime, with a touch of honeyed almond in the background. Despite all the aromatic exuberance, this remains airy and playful on the palate, with great zesty acidity adding to the irresistibly drinkable side of this wine. The finish is long and superbly balanced already at this early stage. This beauty is highly recommended."

Germany's most celebrated Riesling region, its steep slate slopes above the river yielding featherlight, low-alcohol wines of electric acidity, delicacy and extraordinary longevity.
