About this product
Riesling from Germany's northernmost wine region at 51°N — the absolute edge of possible viticulture. Electric acidity, slate mineral, lime, green apple, petrol notes already developing in youth, and a tension from the extreme latitude that makes this fundamentally different from Mosel or Rheingau Riesling. Pure geographical extremism.
