Winemakers Notes: Delicate bouquet of ripe peach and tropical fruits, mixed with the fresh slate aroma typical for Mosel-Riesling. Complex fruit on the palate with blackcurrant, red berries and spices. The mineral acidity keeps the balance of fruit and sweetness.
Vinification
The hand-picked grapes were crushed carefully and the must fermented with indigenous yeasts. After a long and cool fermentation the wine is filtered carefully and bottled 8 months after harvest. To preserve the wines character its treatment during vinification is kept to a minimum.
Recommendation
Very enjoyable in its early stage for its fruity richness, this wine shows its true potential after 10 and more years of cellaring, making it a complex and unique experience. Served at 9°C it will make a great aperitif or a wonderful companion for aromatic, hot or very spicy dishes. After a few years of cellaring, aged Riesling is a delicious match to all kinds of food.
