Description
Buntsandstein Riesling 2023 is a natural wine crafted by , in the Pfalz region in . This wonderful, very expressive white wine is made with 10% grapes grown on coloured sandstone. Taken from higher-altitude, east-facing slopes on the edge of the Pfälzerwald (Palatinate Forest) which means the sun pretty much only hits the vines in the morning, thus leading to a later ripening time
Aged for 12 months in neutral old barrels, this wine really kicks ass for the excellent pricepoint – we are seriously impressed!
Expect a slight petrolium kick on the nose, with a whisper of smoke too. WE LOVE IT!!!
This Riesling delivers beyond expectation on the palate too, being both a bit creamy and perfectly acidic, with soft lime kisses and hints of meadow flowers, vanilla, grapefruit zest and a strong mineralic edge boosted with soft peppery sensations. Truly a bomb for the price!
