Weingut Emrich-Schönleber - Riesling Trocken 2022

The Emrich-Schönleber estate has been around for over 250 years, but it wasn't until the 1960's that it began to focus exclusively on wine. In the 1970's, Werner Schönleber took over the family’s land and expanded the vineyard holdings — from two to ten hectares — around the town of Monzingen, particularly in two vineyards: Halenberg and Frühlingsplätzchen. Today, Werner oversees the 18 hectares of vineyards, while his son, Frank, runs the winery (though Frank is gradually taking over full control of all vineyard work too). Emrich-Schönleber’s wines are among the best made not only in the Nahe, but all of Germany. They focus on Riesling, and the dedication in the vineyards and the cellar shines through in all their bottles.

Light gold in the glass, the Emrich-Schönleber Riesling Trocken emits aromas of stone fruits, key lime and wet river stones. On the palate, the wine is dry with a lively and energetic acidity that provides an abundance of freshness. Peaches, citrus fruits and a saline mineral note flow effortlessly across the palate, leading into a delicate and refined finish. Enjoy with crab cakes or sausages with apples and onions.
