JJ Prum Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett 2018
$66.00Out of Stock
The vineyards of Bernkasteler Badstube sit to the south of Graacher Himmelreich, where the slopes are on a marginally shallower gradient, and the soils are deeper than those of Graacher, Wehlener or Zeltinger. The more westerly orientation allows the vines a longer exposure to the afternoon sun, but less light in the morning. The result […]

Two Tonne Tasmania Dog and Wolf Riesling 2021
$45.00Moving along to 2021, this was a mild and moist season with a lovely tail end, producing wonderful canopies and low yields of full-flavoured wines with great acidity.

Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Kabinett 2018

Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2018
$65.00Honey, white peach and a creamy flavour, but it’s still elegant and fine. It would be easier tasting at the Schaefers if everything didn’t taste so damned good.

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett 2020
$52.00Mosel’s 2020 vintage was remarkable. Warm and dry conditions ushered in a record breaking early bud break and flowering. A repeat of 2018? Drought caused a level of stress in younger vines and heat and the lack of rain caused sugar levels to increase rapidly. Some producers decided to pick early, for some, the earliest […]
