Tasting Notes

Morstein

2017 - Westhofener Morstein Riesling Auslese
In the nose we first are positively surprised by the great herbal notes, followed by fruits like pear and some memory of grandma’s apple pie, nice minerality. On the palate it is an Auslese with straight acidity, slightly sparkling, the wine is greatly balanced with a perfect fruit-acidity-play, spicy minerality rounds it up. Great yellow stonefruit (especially apricots) with spices. Very convincing! 

2013 - Westhofener Morstein Riesling
Beautiful nose of yellow fruits, herbs, slight nuts, well integrated but powerful minerality on the palate, spicy and juicy, slightly salty with a great acidity-minerality-finish. Really fun to drink! 

Kirchspiel

2011 - Kirchspiel Riesling
The nose offers broad herbal and honey note, also roasted candy and stonefruit elements. The minerality is very much defined by loam and limestone, which makes the nose earthy but especially the palate super spicy. On the palate the wine starts very smooth but soon gets pushed by a crisp, racy and spicy acidity-minerality mix. Very powerful and intense. It finishes herbal, earthy again. Long and lasting.

Geyersberg

2015 - Geyersberg Riesling
It comes into the nose with deep lime stone minerality, earthy and very herbal notes, also on the palate the Geyersberg is a very rich and complex Riesling. Herbs, minerality and well integrated acidity define this wine. Shades of fruit notes tend to citrus, gooseberries and grapefruit. The mineralization carries it to stay very long. 

2010 - Geyersberg Riesling
The 2010 , has the same body as the 2015, the acidity is far more discreet, herbal notes are just great. Honey flavors and smoky notes add to the complexity, the mineralization is very characteristic. But the balance is even greater! 

Hasensprung

2013 - Bechtheimer Hasensprung Riesling Auslese
Strong sweet fruit basket in the nose filled with peach, yellow apples, sweet grapefruit, elderflower and herbal notes. On the palate comes an unbelievably fresh acidity that plays with the sweet notes and seems to stay forever. 

Rosengarten

2015 - Rosengarten Riesling
The nose is herbal and spicy, stony, slightly salty, bit of tobacco, yellow and exotic fruit notes, especially passion fruit, also citrus style flavors. On the palate straight acidity, citrus and grapefruit peel notes, deep and spicy minerality. Finishes spicy and with great lemon and citrus notes. Mouthwatering. 

Others

2015 - Bechtheimer Riesling
In the nose you have great minerality – a quite spice style of limestone – mixed with herbal notes, fruit is decent with yellow stone fruits like peach, nectarines and apricots, smoky, candied citrus as well. On the palate deep and powerful, concentrated spiciness from the great minerality, wood as well. Finishes spicy with candied lime fruit notes.
