The maceration technique really brings out the lime citrus and kerosine aromas that most Riesling-heads seek out with glee, and here they are really dialled up. On the palate there are richer, honeyed notes and a bit of edge given from some balanced volatility in the acids. Find out more.

Mouthwatering Riesling of the highest order, exactly what the Alsace does best. Acidity is right up there, with lots of fresh lime, pink grapefruit citrus and stony mineral character which follows through to an impressively rounded-out structure with creamy depth. Lots of different angles and edges to this one. Find out more.

The varied skin colours of the blend of grapes here give this orange wine a sultry blush tint. Something tea-like comes to mind with the soft, grippy mouthfeel and the sapid, aromatic fruits make for a wine that is as atypical as it is intriguing. Dreyer never fails. Find out more.

The Dornfelder of 'Frauen Power', but here direct-pressed and then blended with macerated white grapes to leave it this beautiful, peachy-pink colour. It drinks exactly as you'd expect from its appearance - feather-light and thirst-quenching at just 9.5%. Find out more.
Another great example of a very light, fruity wine that blends red and white grapes together with the infusion technique commonly associated with a producer like Daniel Sage. Aromas pop and the tannic structure is tempered and dialled back. Find out more.

This lesser-spotted Riesling is a wine from the négoce project of one Fabrice Dodane, who you may know better for his work at the lauded Domaine de Saint Pierre. Everything you'd expect from a high-quality expression of the grape; high levels of mouth-watering acidity with a raw citrus quality, smoky lime and nectarine with that hallmark waft of kerosine lifting from the glass.

Made with equal parts Muscat, Sylvaner, and Riesling, 20% of which is macerated for a couple of days to dial up the aromatic profile. The Musacatiness coupled with the dry/savoury finish make this a fantastic aperitif. Find out more.

Stunning field blend from the lieu-dit of Rittersberg. Something about the granite soils here gives the wine a sort of cut glass precision - the wine is fantastically crystalline. Pretty floral aromas evoke a stroll through a rose-filled glasshouse, along with something like peaches and cream garnished with wild herbs. Brilliant! Find out more.
Mosel Riesling, but not as you know it. Blended with Sauvignon Blanc, Muller Thurgau and Muscat, the wine is cloudy and has a refreshing spritz. It's zippy, fresh and funky new-school Deutschland that pushes against against the strict rules of the Prädikat System. Find out more.

A bracingly zippy, palate-cleansing wine that buzzes with tart white grapefruit citrus and softens into the creamy peaks of a lemon meringue pie. Anecdotally described as 'alcoholic lemonade for grown-ups' and for good reason! Find out more.
