"I had not tasted a bottle of the 2014 Hubacker since its debut in the spring of 2015 and the wine is aging very gracefully and has retained that sense of elegance that the 2014 vintage has bestowed upon it (with a bit of assistance from Klaus-Peter). The bouquet is still quite youthful and very refined, delivering a fine constellation of grapefruit, tart orange, lovely minerality, a touch of fleur de sel, dried flowers, wild yeasts and a topnote of orange peel. On the palate the wine is youthfully complex, full-bodied and shows off outstanding mid-palate depth, with superb soil signature, bright, zesty acids and excellent focus and grip on the very, very long and classy finish. This still needs at least another six or seven years of bottle age to start to really stir!"

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.
