This Qualitätswein (QBA) German white wine is lime happiness in a glass. Zesty and zingy with a bright lemon sunset on the finish. Mouth-watering. Pair with glazed ham and salsa.

Riesling food pairings: roasted turkey, shrimp tempura, grilled salmon with lemon sauce, duck liver pate, Feta cheese.

Reviews and Ratings

Kirsten Parfitt rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Pale straw yellow in colour with a bright clarity that matches the aromas of tart lemon, grapefruit and crisp green apple. Also has enticing notes of petrol and minerality. Refreshing blast of citrus fruit and apple with your first sip. This is a wine that will pair wonderfully with spicy Asian fare like moo shu shrimp or pork, as well as citrus marinated seafood and fish dishes.

Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The grapes of this Riesling were born from the steep hillside of red slate soil on the Rhine River that winds it's way through Germany. The result is a drier style German Riesling with citrus, floral, honey, white peach. The palate is dry, light-bodied with a good backbone of acidity. Long honeyed finish. Exceptional value. Pair with German sausage, Bratwurst on a bun with sauerkraut or on it's own. Drink now or over the next 5 years.
Tasted: January 2015

Love it! Winemaker and owner Fritz Hasselbach produces this Riesling that is named both for him and for a comic book character that is well-known in Germany. The grapes are sourced from prestigious vineyards in the Rheinhessen that feature Roter Hang (red soil). Crisp, fresh finish. - Community Wine Reviews
