All the elements in this Riesling create a tremendous ensemble. Apple, blackcurrant and star fruit on the palate, complemented by a long, minerally finish. This is a wine bursting with energy and ageing potential.Ratings

The year started very wet with what seemed like three months of non-stop rain.
Spring was warm and dry – ideal conditions for an early bud burst.
Continuation: In Summer weather improved day by day. Only our youngest vines were a little less happy, as their roots have not yet reached the necessary depth to get through dry periods completely unscathed.
When harvest-time came nature spoiled us with heavenly conditions and a “golden autumn”. Our fruit was outstanding at all quality and Prädikat wine levels. We were fortunate enough to select Trockenbeerenauslesen – the pinnacle of any vintage – from a number of different sites. The extra warmth resulting in exceptional levels of ripeness, flavour and minerality as well as excellent quantities.
Summary: A sun-blessed year of superlatives!
