2019 Rudesheimer Berg Rottland Riesling

The 2019 Berg Rottland is clear, pure, intense and flinty on the nose that shows almost iodine notes of crushed stones with ripe and concentrated stone fruits but also stony aromas. More denied than the 2020. Full-bodied and elegant on the palate, this is a crystalline, pure yet powerful, stimulating and tensioned Riesling with fine tannins intermingled with salt and perfectly ripe, intense and elegant fruit. There is sensational moderate 11.5% stated alcohol due to very low yields (15 to 20 hectoliters per hectare). Natural cork. Tasted in July 2022.
