Product description for Nikolaihof Vom Stein, Riesling Federspiel trocken 2008 (bio)

Archive Release 2024.

Origin

The Mauterner Ried “vom Stein” is a so-called “Ried within a Ried”. It belongs to the Ried “Silberbichl” and borders the Ried “Zaum” in Mautern and “Am Zaum” in Furth. The site covers a full 4.2 hectares and extends north-northeast from 209 to 237 meters up the slope. The vineyard is characterized by riprap soils with clay, loess, and Danube gravel.

Colour

Rich lemon yellow, ripe, yellow notes

Nose

A lush initial aroma is reminiscent of very ripe fruit, from apples to plums. Caramel notes and light butter pastries enrich the fruity bouquet. With a little oxygen, this opulence diminishes.

Palate

In the mouth, the overall impression is dense, ripe, well-structured, and balanced. Harmonious overall, with a successful complexity and a very appealing length with an exotic finish.

Wine Advocate

Score: 88

The yellow-golden colored 2008 Ried Vom Stein Riesling Federspiel is clear, pure and minerally coolish and fresh yet also pretty matured on the developed nose. Elegant and refined on the palate, this is a light, dry and mineral structured Riesling with a savory finish and fine bitters. 12% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Archive Release 2024. Tasted in January 2025.
