Weingut Knewitz Riesling Steinacker 2020

Weingut Knewitz’s 2020 Riesling Steinacker is a single-vineyard wine from Nieder-Hilbersheim in Rheinhessen, shaped by the site’s distinctive limestone and iron-rich soils. Its inviting stone-fruit character is balanced by lively acidity and a savoury, smoky mineral edge.

Tasting Notes
The nose brings ripe apple alongside delicate peach and apricot, with a fuller, welcoming fruit profile that remains complex. On the palate, a subtle, creamy texture meets bright, focused acidity and a firm mineral grip, followed by smoky spice and an elegant, gently piquant finish. The wine’s aging potential is not specified.

Production
Steinacker lies just south of Appenheim, where limestone is joined by iron ore in the soil—a combination associated with the wine’s spicy character and pronounced mineral backbone. Harvesting methods and vinification details are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, with roast chicken, pork, or dishes featuring herbs and gentle spice. Its acidity and mineral grip also suit grilled fish or a selection of mature cheeses. A short spell in a decanter can help the wine open up, though it can also be enjoyed immediately.
