Riesling 2023
Trade Tools
Global / Mosel
These Riesling grapes were discovered by a husband and wife team in the famed Mosel region of Germany. Vineyard sites in Trittenheim and Piesport are steep with fine, mineral-rich slate soil and optimal exposure to sun and wind, giving the wine its distinctive, classic and world-renowned flavors. The vineyards are 100% hand-harvested to ensure top-quality grape selection. Traditional wine-making methods are observed, with individual wine-pressing techniques passed down through generations. Vinification takes place in stainless steel and oak casks over 4-6 weeks, followed by aging in tank and oak casks for 3-8 months.
Harvest Note
The 2023 harvest experienced many challenges including frost, hail, and heavy rains. Despite the harsh conditions, through careful vineyard work, winemakers were able to combat the obstacles and produce healthy, bold Riesling grapes. The wine in result has good acidity with mineral character and an elegant balance.
Tasting Note
Well balanced, with fine fruity & mineral tones and elegant acidity.
