2018 Riesling, Kabinett, Limestone, Keller, Rheinhessen, Germany [06 19]

Riesling's twin peaks are its intense perfume and its piercing crisp acidity which it manages to retain even at high ripeness levels.

One of Germany’s great estates, it is now run by Klaus-Peter Keller, who took over the running of the winery from his father in 2001. The focus is on making great dry whites that express their terroir but they have gained a very serious reputation for making top flight German Riesling in sweet styles too. The key to success for Keller, as with any top producer lies in impeccable vineyard management. Based in the Rhinehessen, where the wines have more generosity and richness than in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer or even Nahe, the Kellers produce some of Germany’s most complete dry wines.
