Battenfeld Spanier, Mölsheim Riesling Trocken 2020

Description

About the Producer

Battenfeld-Spanier lies in the southern-most part of Rheinhessen, and the vines are grown on limestone, which gives them a lifted, citrus character. The estate converted to organic viticulture in 1992, and biodynamic in 1995. Both of them are now farmed biodynamically. If Prüm made wines in Rheinhessen, this is what they would be like: beautifully pure, restrained, and with the promise of a long life. In late 2019 Battenfeld-Spanier was given the coveted 5-grape-cluster award by the Gault-Millau guide, while Kühling-Gillot was promoted to 4-grape cluster. They are now amongst the most highly regarded producers in Germany, a fantastic achievement.
