The 2024 Reichsrat von Buhl Deidesheimer Riesling Trocken is a vibrant dry Riesling from the Pfalz, showing lemon, lime and green apple alongside white peach, pear, grapefruit and delicate white flowers. The wine combines ripe orchard fruit with the crisp freshness of the Deidesheim area, while fine mineral and herbal notes add depth. Its dry style and bright acidity make it both refreshing and highly versatile at the table.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied and finely textured, with lively acidity supporting layers of citrus, orchard fruit and delicate stone fruit. Lemon and lime are complemented by green apple, pear and white peach, while subtle grapefruit, floral and fresh-herb notes add aromatic detail. A fine stony mineral character provides tension and length, with a gentle saline edge keeping the palate focused and mouth-watering. The finish is dry, clean and persistent, leaving lingering citrus, orchard fruit and mineral notes.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Riesling drinkers who enjoy dry German whites with bright acidity, fresh fruit and mineral character. It is approachable in its youth but has enough structure to develop additional citrus, savoury and mineral complexity with bottle age. Best enjoyed over the next 4–7 years. Serve chilled with oysters, steamed mussels, kingfish ceviche, grilled whiting with lemon and herbs, Vietnamese green papaya salad, or roast chicken with preserved lemon.
