Ökonomierat Rebholz Ganz Horn Riesling Grosses Gewächs 2018

Through the elevations and depression of the Rhine Rift the structures of soils are really different: from really old and usually deep soils, like Rotliegendes (red Slate), Buntsandstein (colorful sandstone) or Muschelkalk (limestone), up to younger soils like Hangschotter (gravel) or Lo¨ß (loess). Our vineyard side "Im Sonnenschein" has limestone, which developed 220 Million years ago. The chalks are maritime sediments with fossilized slugs and shells. Limestone is the best soil for long lasting, great wines!

"Bright lemon drizzle cake, light dried cloves, loquat, nectarines and fresh herbs. Very dry and very steely with resounding purity of citrus fruit and orange-blossom undertones. Full-bodied, very textured and long. Drink now or hold." 96 Points -->> jamessuckling.com
