The “R” in the name of the Wachenheimer Riesling R stands for Reserve. It’s a blend from red and yellow sandstone, classified vineyards. Fermentation happens in 2,400-litre barrels, and the wine is kept on fine lees for three years before bottling, which gives a truly unique character to the wine. Bürklin-Wolf wines are legendary for their ageability, which in the case of single vineyard wines also means that they require a lot more time to mature after their release onto the market. The beauty of “R” is that we’re getting it when it’s ready to be consumed. A very elegant wine with a velvety texture, with thick, deep aromas. More mineral and distinctive than a fruity Riesling.
