Only the very best meticulously hand-picked grapes go into this grand cru Riesling, pressed exclusively as whole bunches. The wine rests on its fine lees for 11 months in old 600- and 1,200-litre casks
The 2023 Nonnenberg is a precise, slim Riesling showing pure citrus, white peach, herbal nuances and hints of broken stone. The palate is intense and juicy while remaining linear, firm and fresh. This wine has a cool and direct style, culminating in a long, saline finish.
This five-hectare monopole in Rauenthal is a steep south-facing site with deep phyllite soils that transition into loess-loam further down the slope. The grapes for this great wine come from the steepest section of the vineyard, where some of the vines are over 70 years of age.
