With 2007 Riesling Eins Zwei Drei (the first wine name in my recollection that seems to cry out for punctuation), Leitz has produced a similarly outstanding dry Riesling value. Weighing in at a mere 12% alcohol (dry wines from Leitz’s top holdings in the steep Rudesheimer Berg frequently top 14%), this crisp, sappy, satin-textured Riesling displays salted peach and lemon, and a subtly piquant smoky, stony, saline, peach-kernal finishing complexion reminiscent of many an expensive Rudesheimer. I am confident it will be a joy to drink over at least the next two years. Johannes Leitz has expanded his production enormously over the past decade by crafting outstandingly well-balanced, vivacious, and affordable residually sweet Riesling from ostensibly lesser sites in Rudesheim, and with the assistance of his importer Terry Theise, marketing them with enormous success in the United States.
