"The 2023 Riesling Hallgartener Hendelberg, from the core parcel of the site, was harvested when the grapes were golden from vines that are between 10-40 years old on this stony, southfacing site. This was fermented spontaneously, partly in wood, partly in stainless steel. Yeast still swings on the nose, alongside Golden Delicious flesh and a beautiful apple freshness. The palate is stony and has finely chiseled, tart apple fruit that nonetheless spells ripeness and generosity. Zestiness on the finish and a taut, dry core are promises for the future. (Bone-dry) 2026-2050" 92pts, Anne Krebiehl, Vinous.com

Made from the Hendelberg vineyard in Hallgarten, Rheingau, you get a real sense of the terroir in this wine; a kind of body and richness and flavour that is more Rheingau than limey, delicate Mosel. Moving into a kind of richer Burgundy white kind of area in terms of weight and away from the limey Riesling flavours. Serious food wine and excellent for the price.
