"Made in 2013 for the first time, the 2019 Wachenheim Riesling R was aged on the full lees for four years and opens with a clear and intense bouquet of ripe and concentrated stone fruit notes intermingled with yeasty notes. Refined and elegant on the palate, this is a complex but fresh and rather light to medium-bodied but quite complex and textural Wachenheim Riesling with a long, saline and finely tannic finish. Tasted in the Nobelhart & Schmutzig restaurant in Berlin, February 2024."
