Weingut Kunstler, Hochheimer Hölle "Im Neuenberg" Dry Riesling 1st Growth

The name “Hölle” which could be literally translated as “hell” is derived from the middle German word “Halde”. That means steep hill and has nothing to do with the name hell. The vines, which are about 25 years old, grow on a very heavy clayey soil. Thus, the wines always appear monumental.

Weingut Kunstler, Hochheimer Hölle "Im Neuenberg" Dry Riesling 1st Growth 2024	96 James Suckling Explosive Amalfi lemon and yellow peach aromas. Very concentrated and focused on the compact and intensely minerally medium-bodied palate. This is simultaneously imposing, mouthwatering, cool and energetic, with terrific wet-stone intensity in the driving, super-long finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair Choice certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap. 94 Vinous The 2024 Riesling Hochheimer Hölle Im Neuenberg Erste Lage is from calcareous clay. It presents a bold peach aroma and promises immense juiciness on the nose. This is promptly redeemed on the palate, with citrus lending exquisite contour. The 2024 has beautiful concentration and zestiness that tapers into a lemony freshness. This is long and overdelivers.
