Bechtheimer Riesling Troken

Jochen Dreissigacker has caused a considerable stir both in his native Germany and abroad, winning high praise and points wherever his wines are sold. His 45 hectares of vineyards are based in the Rheinhessen, which is currently undergoing what might be termed a 'Rheinhessen revival', with Jochen at its forefront. From the 2010 vintage, Jochen's wines all have organic certification and he also uses biodynamic methods for much of his estate (although he has chosen not to be certified). Wines from Dreissigacker stand for the highest quality, a long aging period under perfect conditions and, above all, for pure aromas.

Coming exclusively from prime locations around Bechtheim, this is a village wine which reflects more the respective terroir. Skin contact for up to 48 hours with spontaneous fermentation in 20% wooden barrels & 80% stainless steel vats. After fermentation, the wine is left on its lees. This wine is smoky, yet tender & elegant, expressive & very mineral. The finish of this wine shines with its creaminess and fine citrus aromas.
