This estate-bottled, single-vineyard Riesling is produced from grapes grown in the famed Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard in Germany’s Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region
| Wine maker notes |
| Carefully selected fully ripened, botrytis-touched grapes were hand-harvested on November 11, 2001. Following a period of maceration on the skins and five weeks of fermentation, the wine was aged for two months in stainless steel and three months in fuder (old 1,000 liter capacity oak barrels). The wine was then bottled under natural cork |
| Food pairing |
| Outstanding as an aperitif or matched with pâtés, cheeses, roast turkey, duck breast and Asian cuisine |
