The 2023 Riesling DOC “R” by Köfererhof is a powerful and refined white from South Tyrol’s Isarco Valley. The “R” stands for a reserve selection – made from low-yielding vines, harvested late and aged longer for greater depth and elegance.
Riesling, one of the world’s most noble white grapes, thrives here in Alpine conditions. Slate soils and 650 m altitude result in minerality, precision and tension.
In the glass, it shines pale straw yellow with green reflections. The nose opens with white peach, lemon zest, alpine herbs, wet slate and subtle spice. On the palate, it is linear, saline and vibrant, with bright acidity and a long, clean finish.
