Schäfer-Fröhlich Schlossböckelheim FELSENBERG Riesling dry GG

The Felsenberg in Schlossböckelheim is one of the great Riesling sites of the Nahe — steep porphyry cliffs, deep weathered soils, a microclimate with pronounced day-night temperature differences. Tim Schäfer-Fröhlich vinifies this Grosses Gewächs with the precision for which the winery has been internationally known for years: spontaneous fermentation, long aging in large wooden barrels, minimal intervention.

In the glass, the wine shows a clear, fine-juicy structure: grapefruit and ripe quince meet flint and smoky minerality, plus a subtle herbal spice in the background. On the palate, pressure builds — the backbone is firm, the acidity precise and without sharpness. The finish is long, salty, and herbal, with a depth that points to significant aging potential.

Goes well with grilled sea bass with fennel, scallops in beurre blanc, or mature Comté. Drinking temperature: 11–13 °C. Those who give the wine one to two more years of cellar rest now will be rewarded with additional complexity.

The vineyards are primarily planted with Riesling and Pinot Noir grapes, which find ideal conditions here to produce wines of exceptional quality. The Schäfer-Fröhlich winery's portfolio comprises an impressive selection of wines that reflect the diversity and quality of the Nahe region. The Rieslings, in particular, are the winery's hallmark and are known for their elegance, freshness, and longevity. In addition, the winery also produces excellent Burgundy wines as well as other varieties that perfectly express the terroir and the winemaker's skill. At Schäfer-Fröhlich, quality is paramount. The winery relies on meticulous handwork in the vineyard and gentle processing of the grapes in the cellar to unlock the full potential of the wines.
