Eva Fricke has become one of the most compelling voices in the Rheingau, especially in the steep slate vineyards around Lorch. Lorchhäuser Seligmacher is one of her standout sites, notable for the high, windswept slope with blue slate and quartzite that naturally gives Riesling definition. Fricke farms organically and works with a gentle hand in the cellar, letting the vineyard’s character set the tone.
The 2023 Seligmacher is vibrant and finely cut, showing citrus peel, white peach and cool herbal notes with a clear imprint of slate. The palate is taut, carried by bright acidity and a clean, linear finish that echoes the stony soils. It’s a focused, energetic Riesling that speaks directly of Fricke’s precise style.
Varietal: Riesling
Appellation: Lorchhäuser Seligmacher, Rheingau, Germany
Farming: Organic
Style: White. Dry, precise and mineral-driven
