Vintage 2016

A spring and early summer of record-setting rain led to irregular flowering and triggered widespread outbreaks of peronospora (a.k.a. downy mildew), resulting in sporadic crop loss.

Written Notes

13.5% alc. TA 5.8g/L RS 7.2g/L circa $104.
Such a different Mosel Riesling – custardy and not super-pure but has a lovely texture. Famously, Heymann-Löwenstein has this odd sulphur compound that marks the wines. It’s a vineyard/yeast thing, but it’s divisive. Here, you close your eyes, and you’d struggle to call it Riesling. With almost fatty lactic layers through the mid-palate. But it’s not all bad news; there is genuine power and intensity too. 17.5/20, 91/100+
