This wine is like an opulent basket of fruit aromas and charcters - backed by lingering minerality!
Classic floral, honeyed and baked apple aromas lead onto a really appealing palate with concentrated, ripe crystallised honey characters - balanced by vivid saline minerality on the finish.
This renowned vineyard site is characterised by blue Devon slate. After careful picking and selection the grapes are fermented in 1000L oak Fuder and stainless steel tanks, both blended later to add complexity. The wine rests for a few months on its fine lees before bottling.
Bischöfliche Weinguter Trier cultivates approximately 95 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.
Serve with roast beef, lobster or warm apricot tarte. Why not a meal of all three!
