Wallufer Walkenberg Spatlese

2008 Rheingau Riesling

The Weingut Toni Jost Wallufer Walkenberg Spatlese from the renowned Rheingau region is a delightful embodiment of German Riesling. This exquisite white wine showcases a medium body that strikes a perfect balance between richness and refreshing acidity. With pronounced fruit intensity, it offers lush notes of ripe stone fruits and zesty citrus that dance on the palate, complemented by a touch of honeyed sweetness. Its crisp, mouthwatering character reflects the distinct terroir of the Wallufer Walkenberg vineyard, elevating it to an exceptional level. This Spatlese is elegantly off-dry, making it a delightful pairing for a variety of dishes or a splendid stand-alone indulgence. Savoring this vintage is a wonderful way to experience the artistry of winemaking in the Rheingau region.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
