2019 was a warmer year, and the 2019 Ekam is a little riper and has lower acidity but still has 6.3 grams of sugar, which makes it off-dry and not apt for all foods. It's mostly Riesling that softened by a touch of Albari?o, and it fermented in stainless steel and was kept with the lees for six months. It reminds me of the little-known category of German wine called feinherb, where the wines are delicate and have a touch of sugar, a little more than a trocken. It's more gentle, more open and less sweet than the 2018. There is great purity and balance, and it's subtle, elegant and very clean. Drink this as you would drink a kabinett. Like most of these wines, it has the acidity, stuffing and balance to develop in bottle. I understood it much better than the 2018. 30,000 bottles and 300 magnums produced. It was bottled in March 2020.
