Tension-Filled, Pulsating With Minerality: 2013 Adam Dhroner "In der Sangerei" Feinherb & Dhroner Hofberg GG

Andreas Adam has the touch. It's as simple as that. Adam is still in his thirties, his first vintage was 2000, and he's wasted absolutely no time in becoming one of the best producers in the Mosel.

Clos de Château des Ducs & Clos des Chênes
