Vollenweider 2024 Riesling Goldgrube Unterste Jonpfad Trocken (Arrives 8/13)

From Importer Vom Boden: Goldgrube “Unterste Jonspfad,” meaning “under the path of Jon,” referring to the path (you can still see) that runs through the vineyard down to where the ferry used to be. This is the western-most site in Goldgrube, directly next to the Schimbock. The entire 1.5 hectare plot was recultivated and replanted by Daniel in his final years. Daniel used old selection massale cuttings from both the Goldgrube and the Schimbock. This is a relatively cool site, yet it has a finer soil and good water, so it makes what might be called the juiciest of the dry Rieslings. The wines from Unterste Jonpfad are marked by their herbal and zesty aromatic profile, combined with a vibrant yet ripe acidity. They possess a striking energy and precision.
