Helmut Dolde’s magic touch shows here in this Riesling, the grape expressing here its most lush and saline form. There's freshness imparted by the influential soil type in of the Württemberg region, a special Jurassic marl called 'marne blanche,' alongside the body and minerality imparted by its sibling, brown marl. Don't get it twisted about the grape variety: this is a Riesling that emulates a West Coast oyster: lightly vegetal, creamy, and mineral. Born to be with seafood, which is a thing people should think more about German wines like these!
