Info about the wine

From a small parcel with very old vines within the Falkenlay in the Marienburg in Pünderich.

Color

Brilliant and intense golden yellow.

Nose

The 2016 Riesling Marienburg Große Lage "Raffes" presents itself with opulence of sweet peach, blossom honey, quince, candied lemon and salted caramel. Smoky slate notes included. Still far too young to be opened, yet it holds so much power, complexity and development potential.

Palate

On the palate, this complex Riesling surprises with a wonderful sweetness-acidity interplay that makes it seem almost dry. An incredibly powerful and at the same time elegant wine. It demands not only the carafe and a lot of oxygen as well as large glasses, but also the patience of its taster.

Food recommendations by Christina Hilker

  • Carpaccio of lobster with argan oil and citrus
