Wagner-Stempel

As Rheinhessen stretches from the border of the Pfalz in the south to the Nahe in the north, there is such a wide range of styles made here that in a blind tasting even an experienced palate might not necessarily think the wines were from the same region. Siefersheim, where Daniel Wagner's vineyards are located, is one of the coolest places here, known affectionately as "little Siberia." Not surprisingly, in cooler vintages like 2010, the crisp acidities can become austere, even biting. In warmer vintages like 2011, on the other hand, his wines have a tonic vitality that those of many of his colleagues lack. Although they may appear a touch lean in their youth, they put on flesh as they mature in bottle. Also recommended: 2011 Silvaner Trocken (85), 2011 Siefersheimer Silvaner Trocken (87), 2011 Scheurebe Trocken (85), 2011 Weisser Burgunder Trocken (86), 2011 Siefersheimer Weisser Burgunder Trocken (88), 2011 Sauvignon Blanc Trocken (86), 2011 Riesling Trocken (86).
