Weingut Schenk-Siebert 2023 Sausenheimer Riesling Feinherb is a fresh, lively and charming white wine from Pfalz, where the Riesling grape's natural acidity and aromatic purity are allowed to shine through clearly.

Expert's Description

Weingut Schenk-Siebert 2023 Sausenheimer Riesling Feinherb is a White Wine from Pfalz, Germany, made from Riesling with an alcohol content of 11.5%. The feinherb style - German for "off-dry" - gives a discreet hint of residual sugar that balances the Riesling's fresh acidity and makes the expression soft and harmonious without becoming sweet in the classic sense. Sausenheim lies in the northern part of Pfalz, where warm, sunny days and cool nights give the grapes both ripeness and retained acidity.
