Hofgut Falkenstein is one of the Saar's most beloved addresses. Erich Weber and his son Johannes farm about 13 hectares of old Riesling vines close to organic, with low yields and ambient-yeast fermentations in traditional 1,000-liter Fuder casks. They neither chaptalize nor de-acidify, and bottle straight off the gross lees, cask by cask. The Krettnacher Altenberg Spatlese Trocken is usually the driest wine in the lineup, an unapologetically bracing Saar Riesling for purists who like their wine pleasantly astringent and razor-sharp. The 2024 is floral and stony, with white peach lift and a long, herbal, salty finish. Bring on the oysters.

More about Hofgut Falkenstein

Hofgut Falkenstein is a family affair in the Saar valley, where Erich Weber took on the restoration of a historic estate and its vineyards in the 1980s and his son Johannes now works the cellar. Grapes from each small parcel ferment with native yeasts in their own 1,000 liter fuder, and each cask is bottled separately as its own numbered batch, an old-time practice that lets you taste the subtle differences between barrels from the same site, from Krettnacher Euchariusberg to Niedermenniger Sonnenberg. Mosel winemaking as philosophy.
