2008 Erbacher, Riesling, Winzer Von Erbach 12/1.0 L
The vineyard is located on the Southwest of the area, from
slope to flat location, particularly deep loose-clay and meadow
soils. This area's name is derived from the good honey-producing
plants which the hill offered before being cultivated. These
vineyards are situated next to the famous "Steinberg"
at the same altitude level.
Round and refreshing wine with light touches of
lemon and lime on the nose. Slightly sweet mouthfeel, with juicy
and fruity flavors.
"This wine’s straightforward, easygoing ripe
peach and melon fruit flavors demonstrate impressive depth and
length for the price." -

"Textbook
Riesling, with Granny Smith apple and vibrant acidity that
expertly balances the touch of residual sweetness."
- Washington Post (July 09),
VERY GOOD - GREAT VALUE
"This
selection from Rheingau offers an extra one-third of a bottle
for your guzzlin' cousin, but the moderate 10 percent alcohol
level should keep him in check. The wine wins on its own merits,
with Granny Smith apple flavors and a hint of sweetness.
Delightful and thirst quenching."
- Washington Post (Nov 08), - GOOD VALUE

2004 Kiedricher Sandgrub, Halbtrocken, Riesling, Winzer Von
Erbach 12/750ml
This vineyard has a south-southwesterly direction. The area
cultivated by the Winzer von Erbach is a pure flat site. Even
before the year 1,500 this area was known as a good vineyard
with sandy soil.
The wine is spritzy and refreshing with honey and apple aromas. Very nice wine.
