Eva and Alexander Eisele tread their<br />

own and courageous path in Hessigheim,<br />

dominated as it is by its cooperative<br />

wine culture. They took their estate<br />

over in 2016 and now cultivate nine hectares<br />

of vines of which about two thirds are in the<br />

terraced steep sites of Triassic limestone. Since<br />

2017, the estate has been certified organic by<br />

Bioland. The wines are fermented spontaneously,<br />

spend an extended time on their gross<br />

lees, are only given minimal sulphur dioxide<br />

and are labelled as Landwein. A most individual<br />

collection with a wonderfully-bundled<br />

Riesling and the red blend “Adam” at its top.<br />

92 2018 »S-line« Riesling trocken<br />

Scents of citrus fruit, amalfi lemon, apple, meadow herbs<br />

and ripe stone fruit. Well-bundled on the palate with traction<br />

and tension, also juicy texture and a layer of slightly tart phenolics<br />

provides grip and spice with seamlessly-integrated<br />

acidity. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€<br />

91 2018 »S-line« Chardonnay trocken<br />

Lingering notes from the long fermentation, a slightly ethereal<br />

tone that gradually diminishes followed by ripe passion<br />

fruit, pear and citrus fruit with wood-ageing nuances. Powerful<br />

and firmly-built on the palate with good density, extract<br />

and texture. Ageing potential. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€<br />

92 2018 »Adam S-line« trocken ME/CF/CS<br />

Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, an<br />

obvious Cabernet scent marked by cassis, some bell pepper<br />

and lots of spice. Very clear fruit expression, powerful with<br />

smooth tannins and good density. Good length and potential.<br />

14 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

91 2018 »S-line« Spätburgunder trocken<br />

Clear and defined fruit, spicy cherry notes, juniper berry as<br />

well as hints of smoke. Solid and compact on the palate with<br />

a lot of precision and traction with nicely-expressed fruit and<br />

finely-chiselled acidity that propels the composition forward.<br />

A unique style. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€<br />

90 2018 »Edition« Trollinger trocken<br />

Initial herbaceous scents, rosemary, cherry, almond shell<br />

and toasted aromas. Tightly-contoured on the palate,<br />

compact and lean, clear fruit, dry and kitsch-free, with<br />

traction and tension. The wood is well-integrated with fine<br />

acidity. A good Trollinger example. 12 Vol.-%, cork, €€<br />
