J.B. Becker Riesling Trocken Wallufer 2022 CRV5 and rose petalsThe Becker estate pioneered dry Riesling in the Rheingau, and this 2022 exemplifies their commitment to austere elegance and minerality. Brisk and flinty with bright citrus, crisp apple, and stony notes, the wine carries sea breeze aromatics and impressive density built by wild yeast fermentation followed by two years in barrel. Fully organic, unapologetically dry.
