These bottlings of rare Riesling are highly allocated rare treasures...absolute benchmarks in a range of style from bone dry to off dry, each a masterclass in balance and pleasure.

The Weber family farms about 13 hectares in Konz Valley. All the Riesling grapes are hand-harvested, gently pressed whole bunch, and their musts are left overnight to settle naturally, before being racked and fermented with ambient yeasts in old 1,000-liter Fuder casks and a couple of 500-liter Halbfuder.
