Deliciously bright and zipping Riesling from the hugely talented Stefan Braunewell. Still some spritzy energy - but incredibly sleek texture too. This is a terrific example - a super feel and really joyful energy. L&S (Jan 2019)

Tense with some perceptible sweetness and a cocktail of grapefruit juice and stones – not unlike a Scheurebe! Long and dense. Drinking range: 2018 - 2023 Rating: 16 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Oct 2018)

Correct and dense with the limestone peeking through. Bone dry and a bit uncompromising at the moment. Drinking range: 2018 - 2022 Rating: 16+ Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Oct 2017)

Delicious, full-throttle, Rheinhessen Riesling with masses of zesty lime twist and green apple crunch.Jane MacQuitty, The Times (Jul 2017)

Weingut Braunewell

François Breiniville fled 17th Century France's Huguenot persecution to settle in Essenheim, just south west of Mainz.
It took until the 1960's for Adam Braunewell to start bottling the wines from his family's vineyards and, today, he helps his children and grandchildren run this excellent estate and tend their flagship vineyards of Blume and Teufelspfad (the Devil's path!)
