About the Wine

 

German Riesling is one of the most sought-after wines within professional wine circles. Sommeliers and wine aficionados hold high praise for this unique and food-friendly wine. Nicknamed the "naked grape" riesling perfectly captures the terroir and showcases the unique sense of place, unlike any other grape. This high-acid variety is one of the most versatile wines when paired with food. If you're new to the world of wine or only think of Riesling as cheap, sweet wine, this 2018 Old Vine Riesling will change your mind.

 

The complexity of Mosel wines is reflected by nature. On one hand, it is made of rugged, stony landscapes with extremely steep slate slopes and on the other, it is overgrown with foliage reliefs and rolling hills. These opposites come into perfect harmony with in this Riesling. Fruity acidity and complex aromas combine to create a culinary delight. The preservation of traditional techniques coupled with sustainable viticulture and respect for nature has top priority in the production of their wines. 

Tasting Notes

White Wine. 100% Riesling. Thirty-year-old vines provide more concentrated flavors of grapefruit, orange oil, and white peach. The perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, with a long mineral-laced finish. Perfect with spicy Thai food or seafood-based dishes.
