Weingut Hees Off-Dry Riesling Auener Romerstich 2023
96 points - James Suckling. Delicate, aromatic, and beautifully balanced, Weingut Hees’s Riesling Kabinett Römerstich 2023 is a true reflection of the Nahe’s finesse. From acclaimed producer Marcus Hees, this wine is celebrated for its crystal-clear fruit and vibrant freshness. The 2023 vintage receives critical acclaim online for its fine structure and seductive minerality, with tasting panels highlighting its complexity and value.
Taste
Expect a harmonious interplay of juicy nectarine and citrus, sustained by elegant, well-integrated acidity. The bouquet intertwines peach, citrus, orange blossom, and subtle spice, while the palate is enlivened by fresh mineral notes and a refreshing, persistent finish. Hints of kiwi and brackish mineral further deepen the profile, making this a superb pairing for both delicate dishes and light, spicy cuisine.
Producer
Weingut Hees is located in Auen, a picturesque village in the heart of the Nahe region. Since 1824, the Hees family has cultivated these steep, mineral-rich slopes, but it is Marcus Hees who has revived old vineyards and pushed the estate to new heights. Today, the estate is recognized for hands-on, artisanal methods - low yields, late harvesting, gentle vinification - delivering wines of captivating energy and purity. The Nahe, with its geologically diverse soils and cool, extended ripening period, is renowned for producing some of Germany’s most expressive and aromatic Rieslings.
Awards and Scores
From James Suckling who gave 96pts to the Romerstich Kabinett 2023: "The purity of the yellow grapefruit and pomelo fruit is as stunning as the intensity of the dried flower aromas. On the vibrant, concentrated, medium-bodied palate there’s a wonderful lemon curd richness, then the stony acidity and salty minerality kick in and light up the sky, giving the impression of lightness in the brilliant finish that’s essential for this category. Drink or hold."
