"The 2022 Riesling Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten Erste Lage is from a cooler site closer to the forest, partly southeast-facing. It was fermented spontaneously in Doppelstück and stayed on gross lees until bottling in July 2023. The nose is shy but flirts with a little passionfruit. The palate has a rounded, Mirabelle gentleness, very balanced and friendly. Subtle yeast and zest appear on the finish. (Dry)"

"From vines grown on the eastern slope of the 1er cru, which is an extension of the Langenmorgen grand cru and located on deep, calcareous loam and red sandstone soils, the 2022 Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten Riesling Trocken VDP.Erste Lage opens with a refreshingly pure, saline and stony bouquet of white and yellow stone-fruit aromas intertwined with characteristic terroir spice. Round, elegant and refined on the palate, with juicy, finely textured fruit and stimulating mineral and delicate phenolic grip, this is a tight but finessed and very stimulating Paradiesgarten for immediate drinking pleasure. 12% stated alcohol. Screw-cap closure. Tasted in July 2024."
