Eva Fricke, Lorcher Kapellenberg Riesling Trocken, Rheingau, 2023

$49.00

Lorcher Kapellenberg is one of Eva Fricke’s most distinctive hillside vineyards, a steep south-facing slope in Lorch planted on a mix of slate and weathered quartzite. Fricke farms organically and works with gentle, slow fermentations to preserve the purity of the site.

The 2023 Kapellenberg is expressive, showing citrus zest, white peach and herbal notes accented by a cool slate character. The palate is firm, driven by bright acidity with a long, salty finish that reflects the vineyard’s rocky terrain. It is a focused Rheingau Riesling that balances texture and clarity.

Varietal: Riesling
Appellation: Lorcher Kapellenberg, Rheingau, Germany
Farming: Organic, hand-harvested
Style: White. Dry, vibrant and mineral-driven
