Riesling Eisquell 2024
Riesling Eisquell
Riesling Eisquell
Lemon-fresh apricot with earthy minerality.
The Battenfeld Spanier Riesling appears in the glass in a bright, light straw yellow with sparkling green reflections. The clear and bright color reflects the freshness and liveliness of the wine, which is visually appealing.
The bouquet of the Riesling impresses with its pronounced fruitiness with notes of green apple, apricot and citrus fruits such as lemon and lime. Earthy notes of minerals and a hint of petroleum round off the complex aroma spectrum.
In the mouth, the wine is dry and elegant with a lively acidity that underlines its freshness. The juicy aromas of tree fruits and citrus fruits combine harmoniously with a fine minerality that gives the wine structure and depth.
Why this wine is special: This Riesling benefits from the unique terroir of the Rheinhessen region, where chalky soils and a moderate climate provide optimal growing conditions. Careful hand-picking and gentle processing preserve the natural freshness and complexity of the grapes.
Where previously only mass-produced wines were produced, this biodynamic pioneer focused on individual vineyards.
The VdP winery Battenfeld-Spanier was founded in 1991 by Hans Oliver Spanier and has quickly become one of the most respected wineries in Rheinhessen. From the very beginning, HO Spanier decided against the Rheinhessen way of the time: mass production. As a pioneer, he recalled what had almost been forgotten: the individual vineyards, the love of the terroir, the slowness.
With the game-changing strategy of terroir wines in its luggage, HO Spanier was able to secure the best individual vineyards for a small sum in the 1990s. In the years that followed, the terroir renaissance got rolling and led the winery to great success.
A second decisive factor for success is the early decision to choose the most ecologically sensible way of growing wine: biodynamic. 30 years ahead of time, Spanier relied on natural wine, on controlled inactivity. To let the terroir shine so brightly in natural wine requires a great deal of expertise, precision and a strong intuition. HO Spanier proves in all qualities that his wines are one thing: unmistakably Rheinhessen.
