This Riesling shines a clear, light straw yellow in the glass. On the nose, it unfolds a complex bouquet of ripe peaches, citrus fruits, and a hint of apricot, accompanied by fine mineral notes reminiscent of wet slate.
On the palate, the 2023 Tonschiefer Riesling presents remarkable freshness and lively acidity. The aromas of peach and citrus fruits continue, complemented by subtle herbal spice and a pronounced minerality that lends the wine depth and structure. The finish is long and elegant, characterized by a harmonious balance between fruit and minerality.
The grapes for this Riesling come from vineyards with predominantly slate soils, which give the wine its characteristic mineral expression. The careful care of the vineyards and the gentle processing of the grapes according to sustainable principles are further characteristics that contribute to the high quality of this wine.
