We work closely with great producers to ensure we get the best wines for our Averys label range. Our new German Riesling is crafted for us by Gabel winery, a small family estate with 350 years of winemaking history. Recently awarded “Rising star of the year 2022” in Germany’s Eichelmann Wine Guide, Oliver Gabel learnt his craft through the vineyards of Baden, Bordeaux, Burgundy and South Africa. He’s now developed his own style at home in the Pfalz, striving for elegant wines that show their origin. This Riesling is from limestone soils in organic vineyards giving the wine an invigorating mineral character. Wild yeast fermentation in traditional wooden vats (some more than 100 years old!) preserves the vibrant fruit aromas. Drink or cellar.

Named ‘Pfalz Discovery of the Year 2017’ by Germany’s Wein magazine, Oliver Zeter is an exciting, pioneering winemaker. He loves Riesling, but he is equally excited by other white grapes. This is a fresh, citrusy Sauvignon and Pinot Blanc.
Germany is home to some of the world’s most famous, finest Rieslings: “No other wine can offer in a single sip as much finesse, purity of fruit, intensity of flavour and thrilling acidity ...” (Tom Stevenson Sotheby’s Wine Encyclopedia).
Our customers have been thirsty for top-class, gently sweet Riesling for some time, so we are thrilled to bring you this stunning Mosel!
This beautiful F.W. Nalbach Sonnenschein Riesling 2018 hails from Mülheimer, a top village of the Mosel and the prestigious 17th century Richter estate (they supply the royal cellars at Buckingham Palace!). Hugh Johnson calls the Richter estate “an extremely consistent producer of classic Mosel Rieslings”. Its steep slate vineyards produce fine Riesling with lively minerality and laser precision fruit … this is something very special!
While in the wine name, ‘Sonnen’ means sunshine and there’s plenty of that, but don’t expect high alcohol. The terroir gives a wine that’s dazzlingly bright and light on its feet – this 2018 is a taut high-wire act of beautiful, late ripened fruit and lipsmacking, cleansing acidity. It’s a treat with dim sum, and a magic match to whole fish dishes. If you love very fresh whites with a touch of sweetness you will LOVE this. Don’t miss it!
