Soil

Gravel over Red Slate subsoils

This site is known for elegant, delicate, feathery Rieslings.

93 points Wine Spectator

Explosively fruity, offering concentrated flavors of peach cobbler, dried apricot and ripe lemon, accented by notes of citrus zest and chamomile. The minerally finish is long, rich and spicy. Drink now through 2040. 100 cases made, 50 cases imported.

90 points Vinous

Given the botrytis on this site, some of the fruit needed to be directed toward an unapologetically sweet Spätlese instead of solely toward the usual wine finished feinherb. Rich, peachy fruit is accented with nutmeg and allspice on a subtly oily and expansive yet buoyant palate. Enough fresh lime and grapefruit arrive to render the sustained finish refreshing as well as soothing. While this lacks quite the clarity or mineral dimension of the corresponding feinherb bottling, the kinship is abundantly evident. - By David Schildknecht, September 2015
