Couldn't load pickup availability
Benchmark Mosel Riesling in a very attractive, easy-to-drink off-dry style.
Production
Grapes are grown in the steep, slatey soils of the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer. After careful picking and selection, the grapes are fermented in 1000L oak Fuder and stainless steel tanks - blended later to add complexity. The wine rests on its fine lees for a few months before bottling.
Tasting notes
Attractive citrus and floral aromas with elegant, bright Riesling fruit on the palate, in a pleasing, off-dry style and a perfect balance of sweet, ripe fruit and acidity.
Food match
Grilled and smoked fish, or pork dishes.

Meet the Producer
Bischöfliche Weinguter Trier cultivates approximately 130 hectares of vineyard, among them some of the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer's most legendary sites. Almost 90% of production is Riesling, with grapes crushed and pressed at Scharzhof on the Saar and Duisburger Hoffman on the Ruwer.
Wines are then aged in either traditional fuder or stainless steel in their vast vaulted cellars in the heart of Trier, which date back to Roman times.
A Note on Sustainability
The estate has implemented and maintains an integrated management system for quality, environmental, occupational, health and safety, and food safety that is certified by EcoStep.
