This is light years removed from regular welschriesling with a wonderful bouquet of ripe mirabelle and plum. Richly textural with a really Burgundian mouthfeel. Long, creamy and chalky finish with astonishing complexity for the humble grape variety. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. 94 points. Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com Oct 2023

Notes
A wine seldom seen out of the region in which it is grown, this incredible example of Welschriesling shows what can be achieved with a variety that perhaps isn’t renowned for making seriously complex wines. It is produced from grapes grown on 60-year-old vines, naturally fermented in 1000 litre barrels and then aged on lees for 1 year before resting in tank prior to bottling. There is no fining and the wine is bottled with only one paper filtration.
The result is a wine that is tough to summarise, and perhaps the closest comparison that comes to mind is the terrific, age defying Chenin Blancs of the Loire Valley, and Savennieres or Montlouis specifically. Either way, the final wine in bottle walks a brilliant line of flesh and fruit, tension and shape, and is thirst quenching and dangerously moreish. – Velich
