Rheinschiefer Trocken Riesling
Rainier cherries, starfruit, passionfruit. Literally palpitating with slate minerality, elevated acidity and dry extract. A good friend and I both think this one may have stopped fermenting just short of dryness, but who cares? Rheingau Riesling at its commanding and unyielding best. Don’t even bother with this for at least 10 years.

Aug 2nd, 2019Very young with plenty of acid. Biodynamic - florals with slatey overtones. Tingling with petillance on the palate. Overall too young but it does show its potential - fresh and lively.

On the palate this is pure energy, zippy acidity, salty minerality, so pure & focused. Yet there’s a hint of creaminess on the palate, adding a velvety touch to the Rheingau austerity. Delicious stuff!
This is so good!!
And so drinkable this young, while the GG wait for their time.
