In the Glass — Tasting Notes
Eight vintages layered together create a wine that's both fresh and mature at once. Lemon and green apple lead, followed by stone-fruit warmth from peach, with meadow flowers threading through. The palate is juicy and textured, with enough structure to anchor a meal without weight. At 12% ABV and bone-dry, it works as easily as an aperitif as alongside food.
The Winery — Dreissigacker
Jochen Dreissigacker has built a reputation across Germany and beyond by applying Champagne house multi-vintage blending traditions to still Riesling. His 45 hectares around Bechtheim in Rheinhessen sit on loess and marl soils blessed with year-round sunshine, yielding riper, more character-filled fruit than the region's older reputation suggested. Since 2010, all his wines carry organic certification; he also employs biodynamic methods throughout the estate. In the cellar, wild yeasts ferment hand-harvested, destemmed grapes with eight hours of skin contact to add texture and minerality. Stainless steel and old oak barrels cradle the wine before the final blend is assembled—a philosophy of minimal intervention at every stage, letting fruit and vintage character lead.
At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving
This wine shines with seafood and lighter poultry dishes; the acidity and freshness cut beautifully through Asian spice. It pairs equally well with charcuterie or soft cheese.
