The Wijngoed Thorn Riesling 2021 is a vibrant dry Riesling from the Limburg region of the Netherlands, crafted from 100% Riesling grown on loess soils. This 2021 vintage displays a pale straw hue and a lively nose of green apple, citrus zest, and white peach, with hints of petrol and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is crisp and focused, with racy acidity, a concentrated fruit core, and a long, refreshing finish. Fermented in stainless steel, this wine showcases Thorn’s expertise in crafting terroir-driven Riesling with precision and elegance. Perfect with seafood, spicy Asian dishes, or goat cheese, it offers versatility and sophistication. Best enjoyed young, it can evolve over the next 5-7 years, developing richer, petrol-driven notes. This Riesling is a testament to the Netherlands’ potential for producing high-quality white wines with character and finesse.
