"Its gray slate soil gives it its name, 'Tonschiefer,' and lends it an explosive minerality!"

“Sourced primarily from Leistenberg, the 2024 RieslingTrocken‘ ’ Tonschiefer is pure and intense, with a concentrated, aromatic nose evoking a dessert of crushed blue schist and salts. It is fascinating and embodies an exceptional terroir that has always been one of my favorites when it comes to Rieslings that are easy to drink yet complex and unique. Rich yet light, refined and elegant on the palate, this is a dense, persistent dry Riesling—quite powerful—with a long, aromatic, intense, and seriously structured finish. The acidity is electric, yet focused on ripe, textured fruit. [...] 2025–2040.” (Robert Parker 2025) • Screw cap

About the wine:

Mainly from the Leistenberg, the Riesling trocken Tonschiefer 2024 is pure and intense, with a concentrated, aromatic nose evoking a dessert of crushed blue schist and salts. It is fascinating and represents an exceptional terroir that has always been one of my favorites when it comes to Rieslings that are easy to drink yet complex and unique. Rich yet light, refined and elegant on the palate, this is a dense, persistent dry Riesling—quite powerful—with a long, aromatic, intense, and seriously structured finish. The acidity is electric, yet focused on ripe, textured fruit. There’s no need to open a bottle of this classic wine too early. Bottled in April with a stated alcohol content of 11.5%. 2025–2040

About the wine:

A mineral and smoky attack intertwines with subtle notes of fresh orange and yellow fruits. Concentrated and confident, with deep, mineral-driven structure supported by atension-filled, salty heart. Its intensityreveals a captivating raw and wild side—the untamed power of a grand cru in its early years. This is all the more surprising given the tangy delicacy of the citrus notes in the lingering finish. A compelling testament to the aging potential of great terroirs, even in challenging vintages. 2025–2033

About the wine:

Very fresh and lemony, with abundant herbal aromas, this dry Riesling is very elegant and concentrated, with a slightly medium body. A very lively finish with notes of herbs and green apple. Ready to drink or suitable for aging. Screw cap.

About the wine:

Delicate and subtle, the bouquet of the Tonschiefer reveals its characteristic minerality as well as notes of yellow fruit. On the palate, the wine has depth and tension. With excellent definition, it benefits from the incisive contribution of its structure, which lends it salinity, energy, and brightness! A compelling and exhilarating wine. Now–2038
Falstaff

Wine rated (2025 guide) 92+/100

About the wine:

A subtly spicy nose, with notes of slate and dried lemon peel; still relatively closed. Minerality dominates on the palate, with a very elegant acidity that permeates the entire structure, promising a wealth of nuances to come.
