The 2025 Gunderloch Jean Baptiste Riesling Kabinett is an off-dry Riesling from Rheinhessen, named after the founder of the Gunderloch estate. The nose is bright and aromatic, showing green apple, lemon and lime with peach, delicate florals and subtle slate-driven mineral notes.
On the palate, it is light and vibrant with lively acidity balancing a gentle touch of residual sweetness. Citrus, apple and peach flavours are joined by a fine mineral and saline character, leading to a fresh, clean finish. Slow fermentation in stainless steel and time on fine lees help preserve freshness while adding subtle texture.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Riesling drinkers who enjoy a touch of sweetness balanced by crisp acidity and mineral freshness. Best served chilled and pair with sushi, fresh seafood, Thai or Indian dishes, goat’s cheese or lightly spiced Asian cuisine.
