Herman Ludes is another estate that has always cut its own path. Focussing on drier wines, elegant and light, as Mosel Fine Wines say:
 
"In many ways, they are all cut from a hypothetical blend of Joh. Joh. Prüm early backwardness and Falkenstein zing while embracing the delicacy and finesse from both Estates."
 
The 2021er Riesling Hermann is an off-dry wine (with 26 g/l of residual sugar) made from fruit picked in Thörnicher Schiesslay and in the steep part
Klüsserather Bruderschaft. It offers an engaging and hugely subtle and finely chiseled nose made of pear, citrusy elements, flowers, ginger, and
fine spices. The wine comes over almost as fruity-styled on the palate at first but a ripe yet vibrating kick of acidity adds cut and precision to the
experience. The finish is incredibly juicy, intense, and yet oh-so subtle. This is a stunning success, especially considering that this is the “mere”
