Vineyard
The grapes for this wine were sourced from vineyards in the steep slope of Piesport. Perfect exposition to sunlight, a mild microclimate and the fine and deep slate soil provide the basics to make a classic Mosel Riesling.
Viticulture
Fermented at cool temperatures with wild yeast in steel tanks followed by 3 months of ageing on the fine lees.
Food Pairing
Delicious to drink young as a fresh and playful summer wine, this Riesling has potential to improve with up to 5 years of cellaring. Serving: Served at 8-10°C this wine will make a good partner for any meal that does not need a bone dry white for company. Great with seafood and spicy dishes.
