"Imagine a beautifully ripe apricot and you have a very good idea of how this wine smells. On the mouth-filling palate you have all the golden fruits of autumn. Maybe it isn't the most aromatically complex wine, but the beauty is hard to resist. Delicate salty and savory finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Wild-fermented in large neutral oak. Vegan. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Riesling Wachenheimer Altenburg P.C. is on Triassic sandstone with a loess cover bordering the forest, benefitting from shade in the afternoon and later ripening. This is initially shy, teasing with tender citrus and a gentle savor that reminds of citrus foliage. The palate is taut and tight, concentrated and svelte, really fine-boned and elegant, absolutely singing with its bone-dry nature and near austerity. This will take time to unfurl, but it will be worth the wait. (Bone-dry)"
