Wagner Stempel Hollberg Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2016
$85.00
The Höllberg vineyard is located north of Siefersheim and extends for about one kilometre at an altitude of 160 to 220 metres. It is the warmest and driest of Wagner’s Rheinhessen operations. The heavily stone-infiltrated soils absorb the heat of the sun and store it for a very long time. Fermented in stainless steel tanks and matured in German oak barrels, this top Riesling is intense, voluminous and perfectly balanced. Extremely complex fruit flavours combine with herbal and floral scents. Pronounced minerality supported by a delicate acid structure.

Spinifex Rostein Riesling 2018
$42.00Spinifex’s Rostein vineyard is home to two parcels of ancient Riesling, one planted in 1945 and the other in 1956. These parcels produce minuscule yields for Riesling, resulting in wines of atypical concentration and power. 2015 was the first Spinifex harvest from Rostein, yet the wines have been previously been released (discreetly) as single-vineyard Eden Valley.
