TASTING NOTES
Good acidity and sweetness balance, elegant length with fine fruit and pronounced aromas.
BACKGROUND
The vineyards are planted on very steeply inclined slopes facing South and well secluded in the deep-cut Mosel valley. The soil is formed from erode slate, intermingled with blue and black slate stone which warms quickly. An optimal micro-climate has evolved for Riesling with the slate retaining the day’s heat for cool nights and the Mosel river acting as a reservoir for warmth and moisture. It is only under these special conditions that the noblest varietal can unfold its full potential. Nowhere else can offer these conditions to produce wines of healthy low alcohol content coupled with layers of mineral extracts, freshness, fine fruit, elegant balance and crisp acidity. For centuries their vineyards have been classified as best vineyards on the Mosel. Even today, 80% of the vineyards are planted with original ungrafted Riesling root-stock.
