With the winery Meyer-Näkel Riesling comes a first-class white wine in the wine glass. In this it shows a wonderfully bright, light yellow color. If you swirl the wine glass, you can perceive a first-class balance in this white wine, because it stands out on the glass walls neither watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like. This single varietal German wine shows wonderfully expressive notes of peaches and green apple in the glass. These are joined by hints of mineral.

On the palate, the Riesling from Weingut Meyer-Näkel opens wonderfully aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. On the tongue, this balanced white wine is characterized by an incredibly light texture. In the finish, this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of the Ahr finally inspires with good length. Once again, hints of green apple and peach appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by loess are added.

Vinification of the Riesling from Weingut Meyer-Näkel

This balanced white wine from Germany is made from the Riesling grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions on the Ahr. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of loess soil. What is unusual about the production of this white wine from Weingut Meyer-Näkel is the fact that the grapes grow in the Ahr on stone terraces. This traditional way of vineyard management is unfortunately very costly and therefore rarely found. Riesling is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, because this German wine exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of Old World wines. After the harvest, the grapes arrive swiftly at the winery. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.

Food recommendation for the Riesling from Weingut Meyer-Näkel
