Nierstein, Riesling, Trocken, 2016

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

A blend comprising grapes from the South East facing Pettenthal and the South facing Oldberg vineyards, spontaneously fermented to under 5g of residual sugar. Ageing takes place in Stuckfass. With wild flowers, salt, grapefruit and fine wild herbs, this shows wonderful balance, with an open knit, but finely pitched palate of delicate elegance. Gentle but broad in spectrum. Impressive.

critic reviews

91/100Stephan Reinhardt,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Predominantly from the Pettenthal, the citrus colored 2016 Riesling Nierstein is pure, fresh and intense on the nose, provided with intense and aromatic lemon and stony fruit with lovely ripeness. Medium-bodied, pure and elegant on the palate, with lush fruit, fine tannins and a lot of salt, this is a tight, fresh and very promising dry Riesling with a long and tensioned finish. Impressive.
