Why shop with us?
Seckinger’s 2021 Riesling comes from Deidesheim Petershöhle, a challenging, long-overlooked site that the family has spent decades bringing back to life. Its cool forest-edge terraces and lean red sandstone give the wine the site’s characteristic lively acidity and a delicate, understated profile.
Tasting Notes
The available vintage note describes a quieter, more delicate nose than the previous year, with earthy aromas taking a subtle supporting role. On the palate, expect the crisp acidity associated with Petershöhle; the supplied notes do not specify its appearance or a recommended aging window.
Production
Petershöhle’s old terraces sit beside the forest, where a cool microclimate and sparse red sandstone contribute to the grapes’ high acidity. The slopes are difficult to work, and the Seckinger family has been restoring these once-neglected vineyards for around 30 years. In the cool 2021 vintage, several days of skin contact helped temper the acidity; the must’s natural acidity also allowed the winemakers to use only minimal sulfur.
Food & Serving
Try it with freshwater fish, shellfish, herb-led dishes or mildly spicy Asian cuisine, where the wine’s fresh acidity can bring lift to the meal. Serve lightly chilled, around 9–11°C. A short time in the glass should be enough to let its restrained aromas emerge; extended decanting is unlikely to be necessary.
Producer
Weingut Seckinger is run by brothers Jonas, Lukas and Philipp, who continue work begun by their father to restore the old terraces of Deidesheim Petershöhle. The family’s care for this difficult, once-forgotten site is central to the wine’s identity. No further producer history or awards were included in the supplied information.
