August Kesseler 2009 Rüdesheim Berg Schlossberg Erstes Gewächs Trocken Riesling (Rheingau)
- $81
This is a big, powerfully built Riesling, almost oily in texture, with green apple, wet stone and honey notes accented by peppery spice. Long and mouthcoating on the finish; impressive.

August Kesseler 2010 Rüdesheim Berg Roseneck Erstes Gewächs Riesling (Rheingau)
- Online Exclusive
- $68
Honeyed marmalade and bitter orange-rind flavors are a counterplay of silky-sweet and astringent elements on this dry, but densely textured wine. Full bodied in style, it’s balanced with piercing lemon-lime acidity, with a murmur of slate-like minerality through the finish.

August Kesseler 2009 Rüdesheim Berg Roseneck Trocken Erstes Gewächs Riesling (Rheingau)
- $73
Hints of graphite mark the nose, but this wine is tight and restrained aromatically. Green apple and citrus flavors are crisply defined and tightly focused, ending long, with mouth-tingling acids. Give it another couple of years to develop in the bottle.

August Kesseler 2009 Kabinett Trocken Riesling (Rheingau)
- $28
Kesseler’s gems are the GG wines, but this is a medium-bodied, cleanly made introduction to the estate. Petrol, apple and wet stone notes are pretty standard Riesling fare, rendered in a crisp, refreshing style.

August Kesseler 2008 R Riesling (Rheingau)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Honest and clean, with white flower charm and a mouthwatering palate that shows nice honeysuckle and lily character. Quince and beeswax come through on the crisp but slightly sweet finish. Drink now or in 2011.
