Hermann J. Wiemer Riesling Dry Estate Bottled

Description

Winery: “The Riesling Dry is our signature wine. Sourced from each of our three distinct vineyard sites, it epitomizes Riesling’s dynamic range. Layers of citrus, stone, and tropical fruit are underpinned by taut acidities and a clean mineral finish.” “Hand-picked, hand-sorted, whole cluster press, 4 month indigenous yeast fermentation; RS 0.7%”Wine & Spirits: “This has exceptional body for a dry riesling (it doesn’t taste particularly dry, but it’s not at all sweet). The ripe fruit is almost tropical in its golden hue, with accents of peach and pear. It’s plush but fi nishes racy and fi rm, with a phenolic grip for poached pike.”James Suckling: “Beautiful fresh-pineapple aroma with hints of yellow grapefruit zest, candied lemon and graphite. Excellent balance of stone-fruit juiciness, medium body and citrusy freshness. Quite a compact mid-palate, then an impressive finish with mineral tension and a graphite note.”
