2020 Weingut Hermann Ludes Thörnicher Ritsch Riesling Kabinett (Germany/ Mosel/ Riesling/ Kabinett)
Young Julian Ludes is an up and coming star who recently took over his grandfather’s estate in the Mosel region. The wines he makes in the village of Thörnich are intense, and those from the Grand Cru Ritsch site in 2020 have an intense nose and orchard apple, peach and lime flavors with slight meadowgrass and pine needle undertones. This Riesling is very precise, with a stony mineral persistence reflecting the blue slate soil of the vineyard. Kabinett is the lightest style of Riesling and this bottling is off-dry and light, with an alcohol level of only 9.5%, making it a delicious summer quaff.
