Riesling Fructus impresses, with a sleek label. A fruity wine that is both traditional and modern. Traditionally, the taste is medium sweet, because fermentation is interrupted by cooling, and at the same time the alcohol content has remained low. The biodynamically produced Riesling grapes were fermented in a very modern steel tank. Barth’s vision is at its best today: to make good even better, openly fruity, A succulent and filling wine.

Medium sweet, very acidic, notes of citrus fruits, apricot notes, light kiwi, mineral notes, mild notes of honeycomb.

Producer story

"Rheingau is one of the world's most renowned wine regions, known for producing some of Germany's finest wines. In the heart of Rheingau, where the river makes a curve and vineyards are on south-facing slopes, Johann Barth began cultivating grapes in the sun-drenched hills of Hattenheim in 1948. His son Norbert transformed the place into a full-fledged winery in 1973. Norbert's daughter Christine married the talented oenologist Mark, who took the family name to continue the estate's traditions. Since 2010, they have modernized the estate extensively, and Barth's wines have received widespread acclaim.

Riesling white wines are considered the kings of Rheingau, but alongside their production, Barth is a leading producer of traditional sparkling wine, Sekt. Customers highly appreciate them, from Lufthansa to Michelin-starred restaurants. Mark and Christine Barth's estate now spans 18 hectares, primarily cultivating Riesling (83%), along with Pinot Noir (12%) and Pinot Blanc. The grapes are grown biodynamically, and the estate is a member of both the VDP organization, representing Germany's finest estates, and the Charta association."
