"Cultivated in red sandstone in a south-facing VDP.Erste Lage vineyard, the 2023 Roxheimer Höllenpfad Riesling trocken opens with a deep, pure, clear and intense, well-concentrated and savory bouquet with stony and herbal notes that are greenish or even grassy and earthy and also phenolic notes. Round and juicy on the palate, with a touch of sweetness, this is a charmingly elegant and fruity Riesling with gentle acidity but a linear mineral finish and aftertaste. Still young, this 2023 should be cellared for at least another three years or so to get the best of it. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2024."

"The 2023 Riesling Roxheimer Höllenpfad is harvested from around 50-year-old vines on steep, south-facing Permian red sandstone. It's made half and half in neutral wood and stainless steel. Lovely savor spreads from the glass with notions of yarrow crushed against stone. The palate is slender but concentrated and vivid, with a juiciness that has something of apple, something of herbal tisane, something of tart orange zest; all are beautifully taut and elongated. The 2023 is understated and lovely, with a savory zestiness on the clean-cut finish. (Bone-dry)"

"Complex and vibrant, with a slew of floral (think honeysuckle and wild rose) and spicy aromas, this is a really exciting medium-bodied dry riesling. Terrific drive and energy push this over the palate at a brisk clip, but behind this is a deep crushed-rock character that pulls you into the extremely long and bright finish. Drink or hold."
