2017 Nierstein Riesling Dry, Gunderloch, Rheinhessen

2017 Nierstein Riesling Dry, Gunderloch, Rheinhessen

This, the 2017 Nierstein, is a village-level wine that punches well above its weight. All the fruit is sourced from the Grand Cru vineyard Pettenthal, and this could easily be labelled as such. Smoky, textured and with wonderful purity of fruit, it has a finish that lasts for minutes. But by using younger vines, and an individual selection, Johannes is able to elevate the quality of the GG, and to produce this wine that’s the perfect introduction to his range.

2022 Nierstein Riesling Dry, Gunderloch, Rheinhessen Dry | White | Still | 12.5%

Johannes has been running the family estate for 10 years, which has grown from 8 to 30 hectares and converted to organic viticulture since his arrival. Nierstein fruit comes from young vines from the famous and highly regarded Pettenthal vineyard that overlooks the Rhine river. The 2022 vintage is a warm vintage and the profile is more juicy and hints of exotic fruits combined with blossom and herbal notes as well as refreshing acidity and fruit purity.

Ready: 2023 - 2037
