Ungstein Weilberg Riesling GG

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

Weingut Rings from Freinsheim is one of the most reliable addresses in the Palatinate. The brothers Andreas and Stefan Rings manage their vineyards with a clear signature: precise vineyard work, gentle hand-picking and restrained aging – so that the site can speak. The Weilberg in Ungstein is located on variegated sandstone and limestone, which gives this Riesling its characteristic tension between fruit and minerality.

On the nose, yellow mirabelle, apricot and fresh floral aromas appear – acacia blossom, a hint of white peach. Then the change on the palate: tart citrus fruit, precise acidity structure, and underneath a salty, almost chalky minerality that carries the wine. The finish is long, spicy and sustainable – with subtle stone fruit tones that remain present minutes after the last sip.

Drinking recommendation: 12–13 °C. Pairs with zander on beurre blanc, grilled sea bass with fennel or ripe Comté.
