The Riesling Weiser-Künstler, as it is referred to on the main label (the reference to the vintage is left for the back label), is a barely off-dry wine (with 18 g/l of residual sugar) made from Estate’s holdings and from grapes sourced at a befriended organic grower in the Enkircher Steffensberg. It offers a fresh and joyful nose of anise, minty herbs, vineyard peach, as well as plenty of spices. The wine comes initially over as delicately smooth and juicy yet the acidity quickly joins the party and gives focus and presence to the wine. The finish is already dry in taste as the racy acidity brings animating freshness.
