Göttelmann 2022 Red Slate Riesling dry white wine

Göttelmann 2022 Red Slate Riesling dry

Regular price £17.99
"Vinified with some old oak, some spontaneous fermentation. A floral nose and a delicate faerie of a wine. This is dancing on petals. Roses and jasmine. One of the most aerial wines of this tasting. A wine for a tired soul. GV"
Tasted by Tamlyn Currin,
wine writer for Jancis Robinson
16.5/20

This dry Riesling has aromas of peach and apricot. Its slight residual sugar is perfectly balanced by the wine's fresh acidity.

The Riesling grapes are grown in a valley by the Nahe river. The vineyards there are very steep and south-facing, creating optimum growing conditions. The volcanic soil is slightly red in colour, which is an indication for iron, a substance that gives the wine its fruity aromas.

Hand picked in the middle of October, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks and matured in large oak barrels.

Food recommendation: This white wine is the perfect accompaniment to light meat, lean pork and veal.
