Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten Riesling 2021, Andres Deidesheim

Unveiling the Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten Riesling 2021 - a medium lemon-hued masterpiece with lush green undertones. On the nose, it generously offers a delightful blend of wet stone, white pepper, melon, apricot, and lemon notes. The medium-bodied palate boasts excellent balance, with strong flavours of lemon, sweet apricot, and a touch of stone fruits and sweet flowers. The finish is equally enticing, leaving a lingering satisfaction with each sip. This versatile wine can be enjoyed now or gracefully aged for up to 8 years. For a culinary affair, pair it with succulent fish dishes. 🌊🍽️🐟

Rotenberg GG 2019, Gut Hermannsberg

The Nahe region is named after the river that crosses the forested Hunsrück Hills valleys. Although the Nahe is one of the smaller German wine regions, its extraordinary range of soil types is second to none. For this reason, the region is able to grow a range of varieties and produce a large diversity of wine styles. However, like the Mosel, there are many steep vineyard sites here, and while they can produce great quality, the effort required to farm them has led to many being abandoned.

Paterberg GG 2018, St. Antony

Although it has a lot of density and power, it lacks the grace that the best Pinot Noirs can achieve. Still, I firmly believe that Germany is an excellent source of high-quality, affordable Pinot Noir.
