Review Date: 05/2025When you taste this extraordinary dry Alsace riesling you feel a fundamental vibration on the palate. So many aspects of this masterpiece speak of lightness and delicacy, but the other side is all about the dark world down in the soil. There’s an incredibly wide spectrum of stone and citrus aromas. It has only just begun to tell its story. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drinkable now, but best from 2026.

Notes
97pts Ian d'Agata Wine: "Good bright medium-deep yellow with some gold. Apple sauce, Calvados, lemon confit, guava and green pineapple on the captivating nose; a dusting of minerals and a hint of lemon verbena add interest and complexity. In the mouth, boasts a very nice deep suave glyceral ripeness to its yellow and tropical fruit. The aftertaste is luscious, long and refreshing. Marvelous balance here (only 13% alcohol, 2.8 g/L r.s. and 5.6 g/L total acidity): with its intense glyceral sweetness yet lively acidity, this is perfect for scallops and lobster. Note that this is a completely different style from Weinbach’s “regular” 2023 Schlossberg, but each one of these two great wines will have legions of fans. Those who like their wines richer and with a hint of sweetness will love this wine that has an oiliness reminiscent of Viognier. Drinking window: 2029-2039."(10/2025)
