"A stunning village wine with all the positives that we associate with dry Pfalz riesling from the generosity to the delicate spiciness. Stacks of bergamot and oolong tea character, but finely-etched rather than of the flag-waving variety. The long structured finish suggests this has very good aging potential. A 50/50 cuvee from Pechstein and Jesuitengarten GG sites, in each case nine-year-old vines. From biodynamically grown grapes. 'Old school' vinification that was wild fermented in large neutral oak casks. Vegan. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"The 2022 Riesling Forst Village is picked half in the Jesuitengarten and half Pechstein, of six to eight-year-old vines. It charms immediately with green Seville orange and tangerine. There is an inner density, lovely fluidity and concentration, and again, that exquisite dryness and tension, but the acidity is more of a buffer and supple here. (Bone-dry)"
