BRIEF: “Weingut Ress was founded in 1870 by the Rheingau hotelier Balthasar Ress. This important German wine estate today is run by Stefan and Christian Ress, who represent the fourth and fifth generations of the founding family. They are a quality producer specialising in Riesling - the great grape of Germany. Summer was long and hot, but Ress has managed to make a delightful off-dry Riesling, a little fuller and more rounded than usual, with rich peach and baked apple fruit lightly touched by honey.” SOOT’S TAKE: A nice balance between sweet and dry. Good job, Ress.
