Königsbacher Idig Riesling Grosse Lage - Weingut Andres - Organic

Königsbacher Idig is one of the most renowned sites in the Palatinate. The vines are rooted in a calcareous subsoil with limestone and calcareous weathered soils, which give the wine its pronounced mineral tension. The warm exposure with good ventilation allows for complete ripeness while maintaining freshness and precision.

This riesling presents itself as highly precise and full of tension, with fine citrus notes, hints of rock dust and crushed limestone, and a subtle exotic spice. On the palate, it is dense and clearly structured, carried by the finest extract, delicate phenolics, and a lively, perfectly integrated acidity. The minerality is present and multifaceted, the finish long, calm, and substantial.

Fermentation occurs spontaneously with natural yeasts. The aging process is consistently terroir-focused to clearly highlight the structure, minerality, and characteristic style of the Idig.

A great, mineral-driven white wine with depth, precision, and high aging potential, impressively reflecting the class of Königsbacher Idig.
