Gerd Anselmann – Riesling Trocken 2023
Pfalz – Germany 🇩🇪

Overview
100% Riesling from Pfalz, one of Germany’s warmest and driest regions, known for producing ripe yet crisp expressions. “Trocken” indicates a dry style.

Aromas & Flavors
Fresh and lively with aromas of citrus zest, green apple, and a touch of peach. On the palate, the wine shows its dry edge with sharp lemon, crunchy green pear, and subtle minerality. The fruit is vibrant but restrained, with a backbone of acidity keeping everything bright and linear.

Mouthfeel
Crisp, dry, and refreshing. Medium-bodied with a clean and snappy finish that emphasizes acidity over sweetness.

Food Pairing
Perfect with sushi, ceviche, grilled shrimp, or light salads. Also great with vegetarian dishes and mild goat cheeses.

Verdict
A straightforward, clean, and classic Pfalz Riesling Trocken—ideal for those who love a zesty, dry style with no frills but plenty of freshness. Cheers!

Did you know?
The Pfalz region sits along the Haardt mountains, a continuation of France’s Vosges, giving Riesling here extra ripeness compared to the Mosel or Rheingau. This often results in more fruit-forward yet still dry wines. — 23 days ago

From a Naked Wines “take a chance” shipment. Really good Alsatian style Pfaltz Pinot Blanc. Aromas of slate, petrol and lemon. Flavors of pears, apples and a hint of lemon. Bracing acidity. Excellent! — 7 years ago
