`Redstone` Riesling

  • Regular price £18.95

The Rheinhessen is Germany’s largest wine region, and was once the home of Liebfraumilch, that sickly abomination from the 1980s. Today, however, they have pulled out most of the offending vines and are growing more regal Riesling – and the red soils next to the Rhine River are home to some of its best examples. Gunderloch is a leading estate here, and this off-dry example shows why.

Tasting NotesSmells liked a scratched lime, with satsuma and floral notes like jasmine. Gunderloch is one of the best producers of the Rheinhessen region in Germany, and the red slate soils are among the best. Just off-dry, with fruitiness and generosity, with a long finish. Would be great with smoked salmon. Amazing value for money.
