Broking
From the red soils of the Grosse Lage Kirchspiel, RR is an off-dry cuvee with residual sugar levels fractionally above the limits of Trocken, part aged in old wooden casks the rest in stainless steel. This is a fabulous RR, one of the best we can remember, with the intensity and concentration of an off-dry Spatlese. Flavours of red apple, peach, conference pear and fresh herbs are given structure by almost chewy levels of extract and an intense, textured and long finish.
One of Germany’s truly great estates, we are delighted to have been offering these wines since the 2007 vintage. Since the late eighties, Klaus Keller has rapidly gained a very serious reputation for making top flight German Riesling in both dry, fruity and sweet styles. More recently, Klaus’s son Klaus-Peter has joined the team after completing his wine-making studies at Geisenheim and is helping to drive quality forward even further. As with any top producer worth his salt, Keller believes good vineyard management is the key to success. Based in the Rhinehessen, where the wines have more generosity and richness than in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer or even Nahe, the Kellers are able to produce some of Germany’s most complete dry wines in addition to wonderful fruity and sweet late harvest styles
