The 2024 Gunderloch Fritz’s Riesling is a fresh and approachable Riesling from Germany’s Rheinhessen region, produced by the historic Gunderloch estate. Named in honour of Fritz Hasselbach, this wine is sourced from the renowned Roter Hang area, where distinctive red slate soils and steep riverside vineyards contribute to its vibrant fruit character and lively freshness.
On the palate, bright flavours of peach, green apple and citrus are complemented by subtle spice and floral notes. A touch of residual sweetness is balanced by crisp natural acidity, creating a refreshing and easy-drinking style with excellent balance. The finish is clean, lively and fruit-driven, making it an appealing introduction to German Riesling.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic choice for customers who enjoy vibrant, fruit-forward Riesling with freshness and versatility. Best enjoyed young over the next 3–5 years while its bright fruit remains at its peak. Pairs beautifully with spicy Asian dishes, fresh seafood, pork dishes, light salads and mild soft cheeses.
