Hees Riesling Trocken 2024
- TASTING NOTE: This is a great intro to what German Riesling is all about, showing the clarity, energy, and purity that define the best contemporary German Rieslings. Juicy stone fruit, citrus, a gentle stony minerality. The delivery of this wine is elegant, almost smooth, and finishes with a burst of refreshing acidity.
-
ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Since 1824, Weingut Hees has been rooted in the village of Auen, with Marcus Hees now leading the ninth generation of this family-run winery. The estate has undergone a remarkable revival, restoring historic vineyards on steep Nahe slopes with an unwavering focus on quality. Marcus follows a philosophy of “less is more,” favoring hand-harvested, low-yield vines, late picking for ripeness, and spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts. The Hees approach delivers authentic, mineral-driven wines that reflect both the richness of the region and a modern, sustainable winemaking vision.
