2018 Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten Riesling VDP. Erste Lage dry

WINE
The 2018 Paradiesgarten was racked and filled at the beginning of April after a 17 month storage on full yeast. Unfortunately the quantity is very limited, only 3000 bottles have been bottled. Brioche, roasted hazelnuts, light citrus notes, some banana and then a lot of flintstone. A great wine with enormous ageing potential and a Burgundian style.

SOIL
On 120-170 meter Paradiesgarten is stretched in south-east direction right over Deidesheim. Its weathered soils of red and yellow variegated sandstone are the reason for the fineness and balance of the wines. Our plot Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten is located below the site Deidesheimer Langenmorgen and belongs to the site Langenmorgen until 1971. For this reason the Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten was classified as a VDP. Grosses Gewächs until vintage 2012. We have decided to end this special position and market the wine now as a VDP. Erste Lage. The Deidesheimer Paradiesgarten was the first single site wine from „Reichsrat von Buhl“, which we launched only in the second year after harvest.
