General information: Our Riesling comes from the famous Pfalz (Palatinate) region »Mittelhardt«. Here Riesling finds optimal ripening conditions on »red stone formation«. The mild climate and a long vegetation period let our fruits ripen perfectly. The vineyards, slightly sloping, have an average age of 30 years. They are south-facing, were pruned and strictly selected. After being gently pressed, the Riesling is fermented and vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vessels of various sizes. During this process it is most important for us to preserve the terroir until bottling and blending by strictly keeping the different lots separate. The »R« Riesling 2003 was rated by the Wine Spectator as the best valued Riesling in the world – the 2004 vintage got 90 points by Robert Parker and also the following vintages had great ratings. The name became a brand and the wine our most successful one in the world. Vineyard Brands | www.vineyardbrands.com | Birmingham, AL KES101.
