The Rheingau is one of Germany’s great Riesling heartlands, and Weingut Prinz farms steep, organically tended slopes around the village of Hallgarten. This is their dry, everyday-into-the-weekend Riesling, the bottle that shows off the region’s signature mix of ripe orchard fruit and firm, mineral backbone. Trocken means dry, so there’s no residual-sugar sweetness here, just a clean, food-friendly white with citrus, stone fruit and a brisk, energetic finish. It’s the kind of bright, versatile Riesling that disappears alarmingly fast at the table. A genuinely smart introduction to the Rheingau’s style.
