Hofgut Falkenstein Ockfener Bockstein Riesling Kabinett Schorsch 2021 - Bt | MFW92

Tasting note

The 2021er Ockfener Bockstein Riesling Kabinett Schorsch (the reference to this internal cask name is provided in small print on the label after the AP number) is made from fruit picked at 84° Oechsle on vines planted in the 1990s and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (40 g/l). It offers a stunning nose driven by elderflower, earthy spices, wet stone, and smoke. The wine develops comparable presence yet remains firmly driven by citrusy acidity and some fine herbal elements in the long and subtly creamy finish. This combines presence and citrusy zing.

Score: 92
