Dr. Burklin-Wolf • Forst Riesling Village Trocken - 2022
From eight-year-old vines planted in high density (8,000 vines per hectare) in the Pechstein and the Jesuitengarten grands crus, the golden-yellow 2022 Forst Village shows a deep, intense and refined bouquet with a very distinctive smoky/flinty note of basalt, firestone and sulfur spring. On the palate, this is a very elegant, saline and mineral, highly expressive Forster Riesling with a very fine and gentle acidity and a lovely and persistent mineral freshness with lingering salinity and fine bitterness. This is a remarkably fine and age-worthy wine that was bottled with six grams per liter of total acidity and a 3.0 pH. 12% stated alcohol. Screw-cap closure.

Carl Loewen • Maximin Herrenberg 1896 Alte Reben Riesling 2022
Tightly wound and compact, this is a very exciting dry Mosel riesling that deftly intertwines warm and cool elements. Stacks of red vineyard peach fruit and an intense spiciness give this a lot of immediate appeal, but the stony structure is still a bit dominant and needs more bottle age to fully resolve. Excellent aging potential. From vines planted in 1896. Vegan.
