Hargardun

2014 Rheingau Riesling

The Bibo Runge Hargardun 2014 Riesling from the esteemed Rheingau region is a delightful expression of this iconic varietal. It presents a light-bodied character complemented by a vibrant acidity that invigorates the palate, making it incredibly refreshing. The fruit intensity is pronounced, showcasing bright notes of ripe peach, zesty lime, and hints of delicate floral aromas, which are typical of high-quality Riesling. This wine demonstrates a beautiful balance between sweetness and dryness, offering a subtly off-dry profile that invites you to sip again. With its elegant structure and a touch of minerality, the Hargardun is a remarkable representation of Rheingau Riesling that embodies both finesse and charm.

Rheingau

Germany's most famous wine region, the small but mighty Rheingau has built its stellar reputation on its delightfully dry Riesling. Thanks to the south-facing aspect of the Rhine Valley's slopes here—plus the shelter provided by the Taunus hills—the Rheingau's vineyards enjoy a unique mesoclimate that helps grapes ripen perfectly. As a result, these medium- to full-bodied white wines often display satisfying flavors of ripe peach. Fans of red wine should also look out for its Pinot Noir (known locally as Spätburgunder), which usually comes from vineyards near the village of Assmannhausen.
