Weingut Burg Ravensburg 2015
Baden, GermanyThis trocken Burg Ravensburg is a VDP Orstwein, noted to be from superior soils and a village's best vineyards. The producer has been making wine since 1251, so they have some practice. A warm rush of medicinal white cherry and lemon prickle the palate, as well as a swing of sulphur. The palate is lined with a dense layer of lemon, before crunchy pear, thistles close out the punchy finish. This is a potent and direct riesling, packing a lot of intensity into a 12.5-degree frame. Can easily take on assertive pork dishes.Tasted: 06 October 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $24.30 | 750ml | LCBO |
