2020 Van Volxem Saar Riesling
Off-dry Riesling from the Saar – juicy, fresh, and mineral
The Saar Riesling from Van Volxem winery impressively demonstrates how elegant and at the same time lively an off-dry Riesling can be. Fine citrus notes and white blossoms on the nose, juicy, clear, and with invigorating acidity on the palate. The pronounced minerality comes from the barren slate soils of the Saar region and gives the wine a precise structure.
Thanks to its fine residual sweetness, moderate acidity, and low alcohol content, this Riesling is a refreshing food companion – especially with fish, seafood, or light dishes. A balanced white wine for connoisseurs who appreciate clear fruit, freshness, and regional typicity.
