James Suckling
A masterpiece of power and elegance that has incredible lightness, yet with fantastic power in the finish. I love the delicate peach and peach blossom aromas. This carries the high acidity of the vintage beautifully, but your patience will be rewarded. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification.

Bracing mineral energy leads, filled in with tangerine, apple and lemon zest. Chives and green herbs bring savory dimension. Theres nice fleshiness to round off the sharp edges, and the finish is impressively long, with tangy richness and depth. Drink now through 2034.
Riesling possesses a remarkable ability to reflect the character of wherever it is grown while still maintaining its identity. A regal variety of incredible purity and precision, this versatile grape can be just as enjoyable dry or sweet, young or old, still or sparkling and can age longer than nearly any other white variety.

First, look for the world “trocken.” (“Halbtrocken” or “feinherb” mean off-dry.) Also a higher abv usually indicates a drier Riesling.
