The 2022 Gunderloch Hipping Riesling Grosses Gewächs is a refined dry Riesling from the celebrated Hipping vineyard in Germany's Rheinhessen region. Part of the renowned Roter Hang, this site is known for its distinctive red slate soils, which contribute both freshness and mineral complexity. Aromas of lime, white peach and green apple are complemented by subtle floral and stony notes.
On the palate, it is elegant and tightly structured, with vibrant acidity driving flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and wet stone. The texture is precise and layered, leading to a long, dry finish with impressive purity and balance.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a superb option for those who appreciate mineral-driven Riesling with both immediate appeal and ageing potential. Enjoy now for its bright freshness or cellar over the next 10–15 years as additional complexity develops. A natural match for oysters, sashimi, grilled fish, roast chicken and lightly spiced seafood dishes.
