This Riesling has a bright, pale yellow colour with a green glint, pointing to its freshness and youth. The nose is intense and refreshing, with notes of lime, green apple and peach, complemented by subtle floral nuances and the distinctive mineral touch of wet slate that is typical of the Mosel region. On the palate the wine offers lively freshness, with balanced acidity that enhances the fruity notes. Flavours of citrus, peach and a light hint of honey develop harmoniously, while the minerality gives a taut, refreshing structure. The finish is long and elegant, with a subtle saltiness and a refined spicy undertone. This Riesling is an expressive and food-friendly wine, ideal for drinking young, but with the potential to age for a few years and develop even more complexity.
Excellent with shellfish and crustaceans, Asian dishes with a touch of heat, goat's cheese or light summer salads.
