Gut Hermannsberg Fine Riesling Feinherb 2023
The winery can look back on an eventful history. Founded at the beginning of the 20th century, it had a brilliant time as a state wine-growing domain from the 1960s to the 1980s and was undoubtedly one of Germany's top wineries. But the splendor and fame of the Royal Prussian wine-growing domain were soon lost. Only since Jens Reidel and Christine Dinse took over the estate in 2009, made Karsten Peter cellar master and estate manager and turned everything upside down, has the winery returned to its glory days - now under a new name: Gut Hermannsberg
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling, coming from various Grosses Lagen sites in Nahe, Germany. Classified VDP.Gutswein, it reflects the traditional finely tart style from the Nahe, with vines grown on Lemberg porphyrite, melaphyre and slate, terrace gravel with slate
Taste Profile: Few wines express the elegance of Nahe Riesling as comparably. The wine has aromas of ripe stone fruit and acacia honey, complemented by fine floral notes. The subtle sweetness, combined with a pleasant acidity structure and elegant minerality, gives this wine a balanced elegance, lightness, and freshness.
Winemaking Process: Selective harvesting by hand. Long maceration time of the crushed grapes, spontaneous fermentation and maturation for several months on the full yeast in steel tanks.
