Robert Parker
The 2023 Nackenheim Riesling 1G is deep, pure and complex on the savory and remarkably intense nose that reveals weathered slate as well as ripe, tropical fruit aromas on an iodine bed. Savory, fresh and stimulating on the palate, this full-bodied wine is very mineral, saline and finely grippy, developing a long, intense and powerful yet not alcoholic finish. 12% stated alcohol. Diam cork. Tasted at the domaine in August 2024.

The 2023 Riesling Nackenheim end picked in the Red Slope, from the parcels of Engelsberg Erste Lage and the younger vines of Rothenberg. Iron oxide, red apple and green citrus unite on the savory nose, with just a touch of flintiness still ringing in the distance. The palate is fluid and smooth, suggesting riper citrus like tangerine in all this energetic flow. Citrus tanginess makes for a lip-smacking finish. (Bone-dry)
