A standout in the impressive Ehrhart range, the nose explodes with lime and petrol. Citrus fruit is intense on the palate, interwoven with lower mineral tones that linger nicely on the long finish. A real stunner.

The very reliable but little-known house of Ehrhart turns in a true stunner with this Riesling from the Schlossberg vineyard. Subtle but gorgeously complex notes of honey and orange peel serve as the opening act. The off-dry palate displays intense notes of ginger and candied fruit. This wine is both powerful and pure.

Starts with hints of roasted nuts, dusty minerals and ripe melon, all carried aboard a rich, nearly unctuous mouthfeel. The vibrant finish reverberates with nuts, minerals and just a touch of sweet fruit. Imported by Robert Kacher Imports.

Rich and viscous in texture, this wine balances subdued fruit (hints of apple and melon) with powerful minerality. It’s on the sweet side, but balanced on the finish by hints of citrus and powdered stone. Imported by Robert Kacher Imports.

A bouquet of summer desserts—strawberry soup, apricot pie and lemon meringue pie—pull you into the glass. Although not quite as nuanced, the palate delivers enticing apricot and wet stone notes. The unctuous palate and noticeable residual sugar will partner well with fish in an Asian-fusion preparation.

Decadent and rich. Exotic spice, cherry and lemon nuances are encapsulated in folds of sweet caramel that linger on the intense finish. Quite off-dry, ideal with sushi.

Sweeter than Ehrhart’s other bottlings, with scents of dried apricots and ripe melon leading the way. Rich and sweet in the mouth, the flavors of apricot, peach and melon fade slowly, picking up hints of orange. Imported by Robert Kacher Imports.

Honey and graham cracker aromas introduce this clove-infused white. The gold color promises a concentrated wine and the unctuous palate duly delivers. Fresh acidity on the finish saves it from flabbiness. Drink now or hold several years for added complexity.
