King Riesling (~23%): chiselled, mineral whites with signature notes of citrus, white peach, green apple, white flowers, honey and a petrolly age touch, crisp acidity - from taut dry (Trocken) to noble sweets (Auslese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein). Also fine, silky Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir), supple Müller-Thurgau, ample Silvaner, dense Dornfelder. Mosel, Pfalz and Rheingau as stars.
