Ungstein Weilberg Riesling GG

The Ungstein Weilberg is one of the most characterful Grosses Gewächs wines of the Palatinate – a Riesling that combines depth with precision and is not afraid of a few years of cellar rest.

Rings Winery in Freinsheim is one of the most reliable wineries in the Palatinate. Brothers Andreas and Stefan Rings cultivate their vineyards with a distinct style: precise vineyard work, gentle hand-harvesting, and restrained winemaking – allowing the terroir to speak for itself. The Weilberg vineyard in Ungstein lies on red sandstone and limestone, which gives this Riesling its characteristic tension between fruit and minerality.

The nose reveals aromas of yellow mirabelle plum, apricot, and fresh floral notes – acacia blossom, a hint of white peach. On the palate, the wine transforms: tart citrus fruit, precise acidity, and beneath it, a salty, almost chalky minerality that carries the wine. The finish is long, spicy, and lingering – with subtle stone fruit notes that remain for minutes after the last sip.

Serving suggestion: 12–13 °C. Drinking window 2025–2033. Pairs well with pike-perch on beurre blanc, grilled sea bass with fennel or mature Comté cheese.
