About this product
The most critically acclaimed wine from Schäfer-Fröhlich — the Bockenauer Felseneck GG from porphyry (ancient volcanic) soils is unique among German Riesling for its red fruit character alongside the classic mineral precision. Red apple, blood orange, flint, smoke, and volcanic mineral from the porphyry subsoil — utterly distinctive and unlike any other German white wine. The biodynamic farming amplifies the terroir expression to extraordinary levels. Age 8-20 years for full complexity.
