Winemaker's Background:
Weingut Gunderloch, based in Nackenheim, Rheinhessen, has been a family-owned estate since its founding in 1890 by Carl Gunderloch. Today, Johannes Hasselbach, representing the sixth generation, leads the estate with a focus on sustainable viticulture and a shift toward drier, more transparent expressions of Riesling. Since his return to the family estate in 2010, Johannes has implemented numerous changes aimed at capturing the essence of their iconic vineyards, most notably the Rothenberg Grand Cru. His approach emphasizes organic farming, spontaneous fermentation, and vineyard-driven winemaking, producing wines of extraordinary vibrancy and depth.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve chilled at 46–50°F (8–10°C). This dry Riesling is an ideal partner for fresh seafood, oysters, goat cheese, or delicate Asian cuisine with citrus and herbal notes. It also complements vegetarian dishes featuring asparagus, artichoke, or fresh garden salads with vinaigrette.
The 2021 Gunderloch Vom Roten Schiefer Riesling Trocken is a pristine and lively expression of Rheinhessen's red slate soils, offering an authentic and refreshing glimpse into one of Germany's most esteemed vineyard sites.
