Von Buhl Trocken Riesling 2020

Von Buhl's entry-level dry Riesling is drawn, in the main, from the Estate's sandstone-rich vineyards around the villages of Deidesheim, Forst and Ruppertsberg. There's also some fruit from two small parcels that lie to the immediate east, Niederkirchen and Friedelsheim.

All the Estate vineyards are farmed organically (certified) and the wine is naturally fermented in tank, mostly, with some parcels fermented in Von Buhl's oval dopplestück (oak) casks.

''Bright, fruity, tense and tangy, lots of mixed citrus, fresh and dried, vivacious and cool. Decent length and good freshness.'' 90 Points, Mike Bennie, The Wine Front

“… the new regime is nailing it: these were truly brilliant wines. The vineyards are now being managed biodynamically , and the cellar is just  amazing. Mathieu has had to start again, buying new large oak (2400 litre dopplestücks, which differ markedly by manufacturer, he says) each year to repopulate the stunning underground facility so that he can make the wines he likes. He favours large oak, minimal use of sulfur dioxide during vinification, long lees ageing and minimal movement of the wine.” Jamie Goode, wineanorak.com
