Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling from the Apotheke vineyard in Mosel, Germany. It has a unique combination of rocky slate subsoil and a relatively protected southwest exposition
Taste Profile: Marked with a reductive fruit and salinity, the fine minerality forms the foundation for a deep, structured and elegant wine. The fascinating interplay between sweetness and acidity in this style of wine makes it exceptionally food friendly and traditionally demands at least a decade of cellaring
Winemaking Process: The grapes for this label are sourced from exceptionally steep parts of the vineyard and carefully sorted during harvest. The must is then fermented using native yeasts in traditional Mosel fuder barrels and left on the lees for 8 months
A lot of the wines in this category comes generally come from higher altitude or cooler climate regions, and often have bright acidity, balanced with fruitiness that cam come with or without some level of sweetness.
They general have perfumed floral, honeyed & spice notes. For fuller bodied styles, they often have an oiliness to them
