James Suckling (100)

The pinnacle of racy, stony riesling with an incredible Amalfi-lemon, lime and wild-herb freshness. On the medium-bodied palate, it’s beautifully elegant before a titanic wave of wet-stone minerality washes you away. How to come back from that and deal with normal wines? From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold.

The 2023 Riesling Steinertal is from high parcels in the Steinertal, close to the woods. Lemon and lemon leaf are pure and fragrant on the nose. This is whip-smart, slender and so perfumed. It is wonderfully clean cut, ripe and smooth in its lemony brightness and gorgeously fresh. The 2023 is linear, bright, stony and absolutely citrus-arrow-like.
