Tasting notes
Wonderful, peachy fruit and minty freshness draw you into this sleek and very racy wine that has a ton of minerality, yet remains medium-bodied. The very solid, crisp finish suggests very good aging potential. From organically grown grapes with Fair\'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

The 2019 Riesling Trocken Tonschiefer is clear, deep and complex yet bright and refined on the delicately fruity nose. Juicy and mouthfilling yet dense, piquant and structured on the palate, this is a medium-bodied, very fine and elegant dry Riesling with a salty-piquant and pure finish. Highly stimulating and with grip. Tasted as a sample in Bremen, April 2020.
AP number 10 20. RS 4 g/l. Vibrant, appealingly fruity nose. Some breadth and charm. A food wine that's already easy to like but should lose its slight chewiness in a few months. Rather chalky texture on the finish. Too dry to drink without food, I feel. (JR)
