From the Rothenberg, Pettenthal and Hipping "grand crus" and vinified in stainless steel until late winter, the 2021 Riesling trocken vom Roten Schiefer offers a clear, pure and refined, bright and flinty Riesling bouquet with notes of red stones. Light but lush and round on the palate, this is an elegant, refined and crystalline as well as saline dry Riesling bottled with 12% stated alcohol. An excellent estate wine with the red slope character. Screw-cap closure. Tasted at the domaine in August 2022.

A taut version, with a linear feel to the green apple and crunchy nectarine flavors on a bedrock of minerality. Chiseled and almost austere, this is for fans of the racy style. Drink now through 2026. 2,000 cases made, 924 cases imported.??–KB??Region: Germany / Rheinhessen Select to Add
