RATINGS

93Vinous / IWC

Scents and brightly-juicy palate presence of lime, white peach and red raspberry...vibrant, resonant, bell-clear finish features a refreshing edginess of zesty citrus and a shimmering array of mineral nuances.

92+ The Wine Advocate

...clear and flinty as well as warm and concentrated and even slightly minty/herbal on the nose but still fascinatingly clear, fresh and piquant. Full-bodied, lush and crystalline on the palate, with firm tannin grip and good concentration, this Halenberg is rich and powerful but elegant and persistently salty yet also a bit bitter.

17.5Jancis Robinson

Fumy, flinty, chalky, but it’s unmistakably Riesling, not Pouilly-Fumé. Fruit and herbaceous zest are not missing, but play second fiddle to the compact minerality. A rich texture makes sure that things don’t turn too austere on the palate.

REGION

TYPE

White Wine, Riesling

This white variety originated in Germany. It’s known for its strong flowery aromas and high acidity. Please note Rieslings can have dramatic differences as the grape can be used to make dry, semi-sweet, sweet and sparkling wines.
