Schloss Johannisberg : Riesling Orangelack Kabinett 2024

Exotic pineapple, mango, peach, lemon and floral grassy scents - a wild flower meadow. Excellent texture and zing with a plentiful sucrosity but balanced by vibrancy and cooling minerality. The acidity just lifts the palate making this so easy and enjoyable to drink. Forget about just the sweetness here, this is full of complexity, nuance and deliciousness. A wine you’ll want to reach to again and again. A bargain for the price. From the rainy and challenging 2024 vintage that required constant vigilance and extreme sorting during harvest. 34.5g/L residual sugar. 7.7g/L acidity. Ageing on fine less in wooden barrels made from the estate’s own oak.

This spectacular wine breaks the mold for this category, unifying lightness, succulence and great concentration. Yes, orange in the wide spectrum of aromas and flavors, along with apricot and papaya. Fantastic purity at the super-long and brilliant finish. From the eastern side of the hill of Schloss Johannisberg. Fermented in stainless steel, then matured in a 2,400-liter oak cask. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold.
