Dr Loosen Erdener Treppchen Riesling Kabinett 2021

£16.99 - Meaning 'The Little Staircase of Erden'. This vineyard is so steep that stone steps were built into the hillside centuries ago to enable workers to reach the vines. More a rock climber than a dancer, the wine that comes from this red slate soil is muscular and complex, with an intense minerality on the finish.

The wine has lots of substance, peaches, hints of orange peel; very long with a harmonious, mineral finish.
