Savoring the pure and vibrant style of great Riesling is one of life’s most wonderful pleasures for wine lovers. The Künstler Estate has hit the mark once more with their excellent 2019 Hochheimer Kirchenstück Im Stein Erste Lage Riesling. It shows lovely aromas of peach, apricot and lemon fruits interwoven hints of honey, gingery spice and fruit blossoms. Quite dry, pure and clean on the palate, its cascade of lemon, apple, peach and ripe tropical fruit flavors are balanced by its vibrant, mouth-watering acidity. The 2019 German wines show concentrated fruit and rich textures. This is a fine example of the harvest.
