About the Wine

A precise and sophisticated Riesling Kabinett from one of the most revered vineyards in the Mosel valley. The famous "sundial" vineyard, in the village of Wehlen, produces quintessential Mosel Riesling Kabinett: elegant and refined, with a racy texture and endless charm. The classic blue slate soil of this vineyard gives the wines a delicate, crisp acidity that perfectly balances the pure peach and lemon fruit. It's a lively wine that dances gracefully on the palate.

Tasting Notes

The nose is aromatic and spicy, featuring herbal and floral notes like hibiscus, blood orange, and rosemary, complemented by hints of white peach, apricot and pear. On the palate, the wine is lively and juicy, with a core of pear, apple, lime, and white peach flavors. The delicate, crisp acidity balances the subtle sweetness, underpinned by a mouthwatering finish.

Pairing Notes

This Kabinett pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including sushi, arugula salad, pork schnitzel, and shrimp tempura. Its vibrant acidity and subtle sweetness also make it an excellent choice for spicy cuisine and light seafood dishes, and fresh salads.
