Schäfer-Fröhlich Vulkangestein Riesling 2022 Review
Vulkangestein is the German word for 'volcanic rock,' which perfectly captures the mineral intensity of this wine. This wine is made from a plot of older vines in Germany’s Nahe region, giving it a more concentrated, intense flavor profile. Aromas of petrol and crushed river rock lead into a bright citrus-floral bouquet. The mouthfeel is beautifully balanced — vibrant and round, with a lingering, stony finish.
