Status |
|
Sourced from vines situated on steep red-slate slopes on the north bank of the Mosel River, this is typically crafted in a forward style that strikes a fine balance between power and refinement. Expect fresh, lifted fruit tones with the seam of pure minerality Riesling is so well known for - especially from such sites. The residual sugar here will make this a nice pairing for spicy foods. |
