Tasting Notes

The wine hailing from this exceptional location has consistently ranked among the finest Rieslings Germany has to offer, even in less favourable years. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that in the remarkable 2018 vintage, Christmann presents an exceptionally unique Riesling. This wine beautifully harmonizes the signature opulent yellow Riesling fruit aromas with the distinctive minerality derived from the limestone soil. It's an exhilarating wine that exudes power, opulence, and creaminess. From the very start to its everlasting finish, it embodies both elegance and depth. This wine stands at the threshold of what promises to be a truly remarkable maturation.

This is a remarkably mineral and taut style with dried citrus, quartz, ivory and brightly squeezed citrus. Edgy and compact on the palate with subtle, caressing phenolics and vibrant, bright acidity. Long and very citrusy on the finish.
