"O" Riesling Reserve

The “O” Riesling Reserve from St. Antony comes from one of the best single vineyards in Rheinhessen – the Niersteiner Orbel – and shows what Riesling can achieve on red slate and limestone.

St. Antony has been cultivating its steep slopes in Nierstein for decades, focusing on terroir-driven wines. The Orbel vineyard is considered one of the most distinctive sites in the region: mineral-rich, with soil that imparts a unique depth to the wine.

In the glass, aromas of citrus peel, dried herbs, and wet stone emerge. The acidity is present but integrated, adding tension without being harsh. A creamy texture suggests careful vinification. The finish is long and saline, with a mineral aftertaste.

Serving suggestion: Best served at 10–12 °C. Pairs well with pike-perch with Riesling butter, goat cheese, or Asian-marinated poultry. Drinking window until 2030+.
