Wine Description
Riesling is also called the king of the white wines. It is a very typical grape variety in Kamptal and needs spares and stony soil. Only on this soil it develops its typical character. The harvest is rather little; therefore the quality is especially good.
For our Riesling Terrassen we use only Riesling grapes (100%). They grow on different sites around Mollands with different soils but mainly spare stone soil (amphibolit and mica schist) in 320+350m abouve sealevel. The grapes are at least 25 years old.
After harvest by hand it was fermented spontaneously in steel tanks. (according to Demeter)
For this Riesling we made a vintage cuvee of 2021+2022+2023.
The result is a tasty mineral Riesling with a harmonious mix of sweetness and acidity. It goes well with Sushi and spicy starters.
