2018 Georg Albrecht Schneider Niersteiner Riesling Trocken (Dry)
SKU #506429
Winery Notes- NIERSTEIN IS TRADITIONALLY CHARACTERIZED BY THE RIESLING VINES LOCATED ON THREE MAIN SOIL TYPES: LÖSS, KALKMERGEL, AND ESPECIALLY THE FAMOUS “ROTEN HANG” (THE RED MOUNTAINSIDE – CALLED THE RED SLOPE) PROVIDING PERFECT GROWING CONDITIONS. THE RIESLING OCCUPIES ALSO IN OUR WINERY S A LEADING ROLE, FEELING VERY COMFORTABLE ON THE ROTEN HANG, KAWE ARE THANKFUL TO GROW WINE ON SOILS OF THE ROTEN HANG. THE VINYRAD HIPPING, THE EAST-SOUTHEAST SLOPE IN THE GEOLOGIC CENTER OF THE ROTEN HANG IS OUR WINE CENTER ON THIS MOUNTAIN. CATCHING THE FIRST RAYS OF SUNLIGHT, IT IMMEDIATELY STORES THE HEAT IN THE RED ROCK. IN THE EVENING, WHEN THE SLOPE IS ALREADY IN THE SHADE, EARLIER THAN OTHER PARTS OF THE MOUNTAIN, THE HEATED RED STONE IS EXUDING ITS WARMTH. THAT’S THE PLACE WHERE WE HAVE LAND PARCELS IN EVERY ALTITUDES REACHING UP TO THE STEEPEST PART – OUR HIPPING BERG. HERE WE TRY OUR BEST EACH VINTAGE, PROVIDE THE BEST OF THIS LAND AND ITS 30 YEARS OLD VINES.LKSTEIN AND LÖSS. IN ADDITION TO THESE RIESLINGS IN ALL ITS FACETS, MORE AND MORE SUPPORTING ACTORS ARE JOINING FOR SEVERAL YEARS THE WINERY STAGE. ESPECIALLY THE PINOT FAMILY HAS SAFELY REACHED ITS REGULAR PLACE. HOWEVER, ALSO THE SAUVIGNON BLANC, THE GEWÜRZTRAMINER (AN AROMATIC AND FULL-BODIED WHITE WINE) AND PINOT NOIR FEEL COMFORTABLE IN THE RHEINHESSEN CLIMATE.
