Wine information
The estate Riesling "Jacobus" bears its name due to the history of the winery; in the vineyard and cellar, wine has been produced with respect and much knowledge for generations. The name was chosen in reminiscence of the founding father Jacobus, who founded the Kühn dynasty through his marriage in 1704 in Oestrich. The name Jacobus has remained in the family name for eleven generations.
Information on the expansion
100 % Hand harvest, gentle whole cluster pressing, spontaneous fermentation with the natural yeasts, aging on the full lees until the end of March in large wooden barrels and stainless steel tanks. Bottled in August 2020.
Color
Bright golden yellow, clear green reflexes.
Nose
Due to its youthfulness, the 2019 Riesling Jacobus still presents itself somewhat closed. With sufficient oxygen contact, fruity aromas of apple, pear and lime as well as floral components reminiscent of elderflower and sheafberry emerge.
Palate
On the palate, it appears charming and incredibly precise, the exceedingly fresh acidity unites with salty, mineral notes. The saliva flows and the taster is incredibly stimulated and inspired. Its aroma and taste like the combination with vegetables and fruity components. What a quality already in the entry range, wow!
