2017 REITERPFAD "Hofstück" Riesling GG

Once again the rarest wine of the 2017 vintage, with only 1300 bottles in total production. Making it worth while to move quickly… On the nose deep fruit aromas combined with a minerality and juicy creaminess reminiscent of Burgundy. On the palate it tastes of older vintages showing again and again the potential of this site.

Soil:
This exclusive plot has always been highly regarded at Reichsrat von Buhl. In 1997 the first of von Buhl Grand Cru’s were produced here. Our 0.9- hectare plot is the only piece in the 78-hectare Reiterpfad that has not been cleared. To the west, a sandstone wall measuring a hight of 3 meters shields the site while the eastern and Northern slope are bordered by a wall. To the south, a grass ditch separates our plot from the neighboring plot. Under the surface there is a limestone base, the soil is infused with speckled sandstone, loess and occasionally a bit of basalt carried into the site over 150 years ago.
