Rheinhessen, Germany
Crikey, this is a lot of wine for the money – but then again, it has pretty good pedigree! Gunderloch’s Nierstein Riesling Trocken is a blend of the winery’s holdings in the Rothenberg, Pettenthal and Hipping vineyards in Nierstein, Rheinhessen. The nose is extraordinarily good – hugely pungent, mineral and extroverted, and as fresh as a sea breeze. The palate packs a generously salty, limey punch, with great length. Make no mistake, this is a wine that wants to accompany food, and bold food at that. Hugely impressive. What a treat – especially on a Wednesday!

Peach garden hose, fresh and acidic with some roundness—great pour at $17
