Künstler Hochheim Hölle Riesling GG dry

The Hochheimer Hölle is considered one of the great Riesling sites of the Rheingau — steep, deep, warm. The Künstler winery has been one of the most reliable addresses here for decades.

50-year-old vines yield small harvests with concentrated must weight. Aging in large wooden barrels keeps the fruit in the foreground but gives the wine the necessary texture for long maturation. For the 2022 vintage, James Suckling awarded 98 points — one of the highest ratings a Hochheim Riesling has ever received.

In the glass, white peach, citrus bundles, and a hint of herbal spice from the Hochheim loess soil appear. The palate is dense, the acidity taut without sharpness, the finish long and mineral. A young wine that is just opening up — its full potential will unfold from 2027 onwards.
