"Fine and elegant with delicate peach and citrus aromas, but also unusually powerful for the humble category and this producer. Long, ripe and crisp finish. From organically grown grapes." —winemaker Wine Anthology Team Review-A sleek and finely tuned wine with pronounced nectarine, peach and lemon zest flavors. Wonderfully easy drinking with a long, focused finish. Enjoy with your favorite Thai meal. Cheers! |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Predominantly from the Leistenberg plus first selections of the local crus, the 2020 Riesling Tonschiefer opens enormously pure and stony as well as citric on the earthy nose that is a terrific representative for the clayish slate terroir. Complex and juicy on the palate, this is a tensioned, finely reductive yet very intense and structured dry Riesling with fine phenolic grip and an expressive finish with salty-piquant and phenolic acidity. An impressive wine. 12% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021." —Wine Advocate "Very pristine and sleek with finely etched peach, nectarine and Amalfi lemon-zest character, as well as minerality that slowly builds at the long, very focused finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap." —James Suckling |
