The 2019er Hofberg, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was fermented in Fuder with fruit picked on 55 to 60-year-old vines situated in classical parts on the main hill of the vineyard. It immediately captures one’s attention with some attractive and richer scents of pineapple, almond cream, a hint of apricot, and spices. Despite a low 12% of alcohol, the wine proves intense and rich on the structured and quite tart palate. The finish is quite imposing but also juicy and herbal. This more forceful but no less fascinating expression of dry Riesling will need a few years to integrate its elements. 2023-2029
