Very complex nose of wet stones, rhubarb, white peaches and flowers. Dense yet delicate, structured and filigree, this medium-bodied wine shoots across the palate with a linearity that reminds me of Australian dry riesling, but is married to wonderful wild-herb delicacy.

On the nose, amalfi lemon and blood orange, subtle fresh herbs, with clear mineral notes underneath. On the palate, the very essence of Rheingau Riesling, a steely elegance enlaced with a subtle minerality, playful. Great potential!
Stunning expression of the very special style of the wines from Rauenthal, this dry riesling is spicy with notes of licorice and sandalwood. With some aeration also mandarin orange. Very structured, but with a richness wrapped around this that gives it a very enticing mouthfeel. Extremely long, silky finish that’s so detailed and delicate. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold.
