Description

“A cool and very well-structured village wine with plenty of chalky character, around which plenty of mirabelle fruit is wrapped, also notes of fresh mint and pineapple. Impressive concentration and structure makes this a very serious village wine. Bone dry and not for the faint of heart. Long, powerful finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.” 93 Stuart Piggott

“The 2021 Hohen-Sülzen Riesling 1G is pure, clear and intense on the yeasty nose, with ripe lemon aromas intermingled with limestone notes. Pure and saline on the palate, this is a medium-bodied yet intense and slightly caramelly dry Riesling with a savory-mineral grip and saline acidity. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2022.” 92 Stephan Reinhardt
