Description

Johannes Kopp’s Feinherb Riesling is all about balance - just enough sweetness to round things out, but still fresh and vibrant. Made from 20- to 45-year-old vines grown on a mix of silty, granite, and loess soils, it’s a great example of why Baden Riesling deserves more attention.

Fermented and aged in stainless steel for seven months, it keeps the focus on pure, juicy fruit with bright acidity. At 18 g/L of residual sugar, it sits between dry and off-dry, making it super versatile. It’s the kind of Riesling that works just as well on its own as it does alongside spicy food, seafood, or a good cheese board.

Since it’s only made in certain years, this is the kind of wine you grab when you see it. Great value, seriously drinkable, and always worth having a bottle in the fridge.

For a wine that is only produced in some years this is almost highway robbery it's this much of a steal. Just an absolutely superb, classical riesling that will satiate any sweet tooth and Riesling lover, but will well and truly over deliver. It's classified as 'Feinherb' which sits between Trocken and Kabinett levels of sweetness - it's almost like the goldilocks for german Riesling - not too sweet, not too dry, just right. Only stainless steel here so the fruit is well and truly to the front - nectarine, orange peel, pineapple, mango. Just a fantastic Riesling for what it sets you back. Should almost always be in the fridge.

About Kopp:
Johannes Kopp is the 2nd Generation of the Kopp Estate, taking over the family vineyard and winery at just 22 in 2012. Since then, he's grown the vineyard holdings to 32ha and has converted all the vineyards to be Demeter certified bio-dynamic. Johannes and his partner Alina focus their effort on crafting great Spatburgunder, alongside Chardonnay, Weissburgunder and of course Riesling. Through these varieties, they hope to showcase the incredible diversity of soil that occurs in their unique pocket of the world.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
