It is located in prime location along the Mosel River, and the vines are older as well, producing not only little quantity, but also higher quality. Here the soils is not blue slate, but rather grey slate.

It comes from a very steep vineyard with 40-year-old vines rooting in grey, blue and brown slate soils with quartzite inclusions. On the palate this is a dense, compact, piquant and dry (though 10.8 grams per liter residual sugar is legally not dry in Europe), medium to full-bodied Riesling with a demanding complexity and purity. Still very young in the beginning, the finish of this seemingly lean, but elegant and complex wine, is salty, slightly drying (due to its quartzite-coined minerality) and gives early hints of maturity. This is a very gastronomic new entry in the Wine Advocate that should not be overlooked. 1,300 bottles produced.-\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Parker 90 Point\u003c\/strong\u003es\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003eWhiffs of candle wax and lime zest accent pretty floral notes on this slightly off-dry Riesling. Flavors of yellow cherries and peach are juicy and ripe on the palate, extended through the finish with steely streaks of mineral and acid. It’s an elegant wine with power and complexity.  — A.I.  (12\/1\/2014)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"font-size:14px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Wine Enthusiast Magazine (December 2014), 91 pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard Bocking","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948796244015,"sku":"G1EE348002RSS","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/Bocking_AlteReben_2012_LabelHQ.jpg?v=1771483677","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/richard-bocking-alte-reben-trarbacher-ungsberg-2012","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
