"Enveloping but subtle nose of ripe stone fruits. Still slightly yeasty, but it is very early days for this minor masterpiece of a Pfalz dry riesling. Stunning harmony, the salty and chalky character underlining this beautifully. From biodynamically grown grapes. Wild-fermented in large neutral oak. Vegan. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Riesling Wachenheim Rechbächel P.C. is a monopole vineyard dominated by Triassic sandstone on the cusp of the limestone. There is a slight reduction, followed by juicy apple, cream and citrus. The palate is compact, has fluidity, density and a lengthy, lemony, smooth mid-palate. This is gentle, rounded and smooth but shines with that lemony purity and bone-dry linearity. (Bone-dry)"
