Knebel 2018 Riesling "Alte Reben"
Because of the VDP strictures, Matthias had to figure out what to do with his Hamm and Brückstück sites, previously bottled separately, but not regarded as Grosse Lagen sites. His response was to bottle the oldest vineyards from both sites into this “Alte Reben” bottling and declassifying the rest into the “Von den Terrassen.” The vines are 60-70 years old, and it is one of my favorite wines from Matthias each vintage. 80% is fermented stainless, 20% in neutral 500L barrel.
