"This comes off two hectares of one of the Naheâs most hallowed sites, a plot of gray slate mixed with clay, sandstone, rhyolite, porphyry and other volcanic stone. Itâs a warm site, and that shows in the wine, a big, expressive riesling full of orange marmalade flavor and violet and lime blossom scents. And it lasts, meaty and full, feeling as sturdy as it is pretty. Drink it now for the full effect of its power, or put it away . . ."

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.
