When Karl Heyden’s son, Frank, took over winemaking at the family estate in Oppenheim, he went to work catapulting the quality of their wines to new heights. With a deep commitment to sustainable agriculture, the Heyden family is a leader not only in quality but environmental friendliness as well. This Riesling shows impressive balance, lemon-lime citrus flavors, and a glimmering minerality shining throughout. It’s a real head turner!
