Staff Pick Notes

Yes Mom, there is such a thing as bone dry Riesling. Even from the Mosel. In fact, Immich-Batterieberg estate focuses on dry Riesling. The CAI is their entry wine and is primarily made from estate fruit. It has a laser like focus with searing acidity and minerality that will make you look for grains of slate in the bottle. It smells of baked apples and white flowers. The palate shows yellow citrus and pineapple. It will show improvement on the second day of opening. It comes from a historic estate that had been in the Immich family from 1425-1989. In 2007 Gernot Kollmann took over the estate and began to implement organic farming and non interventionist cellar practices.
