2021 Dr. Bürklin-Wolf Ruppertsberger Riesling

Bürklin-Wolf owns vineyards in the most famous "Lagen" of the Mittelhaardt. The company owns vineyards in different Layers (vineyards) in the towns of Forst, Deidesheim, Ruppertsberg and Wachenheim. Bürklin-Wolf uses the Burgundian model of the quality pyramid for the classification of dry Riesling wines. In this model, terroir, yield and degree of ripeness of the grapes are taken into account, so Grand Cru (GC) and Premier Cru are used. Bürklin-Wolf is a member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikats- und Qualitätsweingüter) but nevertheless does not use the term Grosses Gewächs. The dr. Bürklin-Wolf Ruppertsberger Riesling opens with a somewhat wild but pure and exciting bouquet of stone chips and rather floral Riesling aromas. Luscious and round on the palate, this is a charmingly fruity, refined and elegant dry Riesling with a salty-crystalline and stimulating spicy finish. This is an expressive Riesling with a great price/quality ratio
