Dhroner Riesling Trocken

Score

"Dhron is a difficult name for English speakers, but here's a good reason to learn it. This has wonderful, forthright stone fruit and white flower aromas plus a creamy, silky palate in which everything is already beautifully integrated. Not quite bone dry in the long, complete finish, but a delicious riesling that's dry enough to work well on the dining table. Fermented and matured on the lees exclusively in well-used Mosel Fuder casks."

"The 2023 Riesling Dhroner, picked from the less steep portions of the Dhroner Hofberg from around 45-year-old vines, was fermented and matured in Fuder. Just a touch of lemon appears on the nose. The palate brings a stoniness that feels solid, calm and smooth rather than edgy, with lemon surrounding its slender body."
