Germany remains the best producer of Riesling and in a great variety of styles. Here you have a Riesling of outstanding quality from the historic Rheinhessen. It’s made by brothers Peter and Fritz May, seventh-generation winemakers at the Karl May estate. Both have studied oenology at university and travelled widely: Peter having worked in Marlborough in New Zealand and Fritz at Riesling specialist Grosset in Australia and Preisinger in Austria. They've a modern approach to winemaking, with eco-friendly methods in the vineyard and a non-interventional approach in the cellar. And it's reflected in the pure, vibrant fruit and finesse of their wines. Like this 2021 Spätlese, full of green apple and citrus, with finely balanced sweetness.
