"Very cool, sleek and racy, this is a radically authentic expression of the unique character of Lorch! This may be too steely for some, but we find this electric acidity and stony minerality very exciting. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"The 2024 Riesling Estate Lorch is from the Lorcher Kapellenberg, Schlossberg and Krone sites on a mix of grey slate and some quartzite. This was made in stainless steel and stayed on lees until summer. The fragrant nose is alive with crushed citrus foliage, a touch of conifer and gorgeous lemon aromas. The palate is beautifully lithe and exquisitely citric, with a beautiful concentration that drives this forward. The 2024 is as straight as an arrow. Bone-dry"

"Very racy and citric with stacks of Amalfi lemon and lime character on the sleek and focused palate. Really linear, but with no hint of sharpness (which this commune can easily show), this is extremely bright and stony with excellent energy. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"This wine displays a touch of flint that adds a layer of intrigue to its character. Nicely made, it offers a long, expressive palate filled with vibrant notes of ripe apple and pear. The inviting finish lingers pleasantly, making it a delightful choice for fish, poultry and cheese. Skurnik Wines, Inc. "A.Z."

"The 2022 Riesling Estate Lorch was harvested exclusively in the Lorch sites of Kapellenberg, Schlossberg and Krone and made in stainless steel with cultured yeast. The nose has a sense of creamy, ripe yellow pear flesh, with a sense of lemon pith. The palate has a very clear-cut juiciness, again that sense of lemon-tempered, pear juice on a slender, bright palate. There is a textural suspicion of yeast and a gentle saltiness. The finish is dry and clear-cut and very fresh with a lovely persistence of citrus. (Bone-dry)"
