2015 Rings Riesling Kallstadter Steinacker Erste Lage

This is again from poor, limestone dominant soils, with an ever greater sense of dry extract and mineral tension. Both of the 1er cru Rieslings impressed me mightily in 2014. From their website: “Cool and refeshing, aromas of stone fruits, pomegranate and mint. Influenced by the lime-rich soil, very mineral and forceful with excellent length.”
