Organic/Bio Lower ABV The slate soils here give this fully dry ("Trocken") Riesling loads of stony minerality from front to back and side-to-side. If really rocky Sancerre is your thing, this is your Riesling. Heck, if wine is your thing, this is your Riesling. Seriously good.

James Suckling: 93 Points

"For a wine of this rather humble category, this is extremely mineral. In fact, if you are in doubt what that word means, then here’s the explanation. But there’s also wonderful white-peach fruit that provides a wonderful contrast to the wet-stone character and lemony acidity. Long, pristine finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification."

Wine Advocate: 92 Points

"The 2021 Riesling Tonschiefer is from slate soils in Oberhausen (Leistenberg and Hermnnshöhle) and offers a clear, intense and salted bouquet of crushed rocks and white stone fruits. Supple yet light and fresh on the palate, this is a piquant and finely tannic, stimulatingly salty Riesling with lush fruit on the finish, which is still a bit edgy but only as rugged as the landscape around Oberhausen. 12% stated alcohol."
