"The fruit here pulls in a tropical direction compared with that of the corresponding Goldloch, but pineapple, Persian melon and mango are no less lusciously on display that were the peach and nectarine in that sibling. A polished, subtly creamy texture is delightfully compatible with animatingly bright fresh fruit juiciness, and the vibrantly and seductively lingering finish derives counterpoint from melon seed piquancy, smoky black tea and stone. (This was raised half-each in tank and cask. It reflects a small amount of botrytis, reports Diel, and was picked early.)"

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.
