Notes | |||
"Sourced from Gunderloch's three grand cru sites (Rothenberg, Pettenthal, Hipping), spontaneously fermented and vinified in steel. Red slate (roten schiefer) coats the tongue and flourishes its herbal, spice-scented signature. 12hrs of skin contact also lends the wine a touch of tannin and phenolic tension that makes this a bracing, refreshing experience." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Still a bit closed with restrained wild herb and crisp pear aromas, this is a strikingly original and mineral wine for a basic dry riesling. Excellent balance and a long wet stone finish underline this. Mostly from the Rotheberg GG sites with a small amount from the Pettental GG site. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold. Screw cap." —James Suckling |
