First recorded in 1148, it earned its name in the 14th century from the substantial sums paid for its best plots in Rhenish gold florins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Christian and Matthias Runkel make one of their finest dry Rieslings from an old-vine parcel on these steep slopes above Appenheim. Classified VDP.Grosse Lage, the German equivalent of Grand Cru, it’s a special vineyard making some of Rheinhessen's finest Rieslings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe limestone beneath Hundertgulden began as ancient coral reefs, with water-retaining layers that help sustain the vines. Warm southern and southwestern exposures meet cool westerly winds, giving the grapes a long, slow ripening season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brothers pick late and by hand in several passes, then ferment with native yeasts and leave the wine on lees for ten months. Apple, peach and citrus sit alongside subtle floral and nutty notes, with generous texture, fine acidity and a salty, chalky finish that carries on beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Bischel's home ground in Appenheim and a seriously ambitious project, with old vines and a historically prized site. Serious dry Riesling, and remarkable value at this level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZooaKy5Xpg8?si=dFJ45raDIBLhywP6\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/hundertgulden_qyqkby.webp?v=1792489599\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe remarkable and historic GG-classified Hundertgulden vineyard\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weingut Bischel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43940643831851,"sku":"2023 Weingut Bischel Hundertgulden Riesling GG","price":125.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2023WeingutBischelHundertguldenRieslingGG.png?v=1792483277","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2023-weingut-bischel-hundertgulden-riesling-gg","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
