Jonas is one of the top talents to emerge in the last few years in the Mosel, but this time right on the Luxembourg border. Brilliant wines, organically farmed with minimal sulphur, always so fresh and light yet complex. Our good friends at Mosel Fine Wines say:
 
The 2021er Pure Limestone (with L-Nr. 2-22) is made from fruit picked on young vines along natural lines, i.e. without intervention, and was bottled unfiltered and with little SO2 added (20 mg/l). It offers a stunning nose of white flowers, minerals, and citrusy and minty elements, all wrapped in some subtle oak. The wine proves stunningly playful and precise even if still quite tart on the palate and leaves a superbly fresh and elegant feel in the animating and hugely precise finish. The aftertaste already hints at greatness to come. What a success! 2023-2026 (91 points)
