Weingut Hermann Ludes Hermann 2022

Weingut Hermann Ludes is a traditional Mosel estate in Thorneich, focused on old-vine Riesling from steep slate vineyards including the Thorneicher Ritsch. Long known mostly to insiders, the domaine has gained attention for wines that feel intensely classical: light in alcohol, high in acidity, often off-dry, and marked by smoke, herbs, citrus and slate. The estate's style is not glossy or technologically polished. It is transparent, sometimes severe and beautifully detailed, preserving a Mosel idiom that depends on patience, old vines and the tension between ripeness and electric acidity.
