$69.89 price per bottle
The Rüdesheimer Drachenstein vineyard is situated at the base of the national monument. âGermaniaâ close to the Niederwald-forest. Here, the soil contains a combination of quartz and quartzite with mixed-in red clay slate topsoil. The soilâs red colouring is a result of the iron content of this slate that has been oxidised to iron oxide, leaving a very rocky, hard soil. The soil warms easily because of the low water content and high solar radiation levels along the slope. The warm radiation and hydric stress in this site results in low yield, yet very aromatic grapes. . 91 points Falstaff. Highly fragrant nose of honey, caramelised sugar. On the palate juicy acidity with lots of green apple, soft texture with a slight saltiness. It has a persistent finish which lingers for a very long time. Great food wine. - Ulrich Sautter
