Wine from the Mosel

Elbling with 30mg/l of sulphite. Landwein from the Upper Mosel. Slight maceration on the skins. Added a handful of Roter Elbling. Grip, tension and length.

Blend of 1/3 Elbling, 1/3 Pinot Gris and 1/3 Chardonnay. Landwein der Mosel. Color of Onion skin (see photo). Sulfur 25 mg/l. Soft start and well-rounded flavor. But beware! Piquant refined acidity in the aftertaste. Beautiful 3-unity. Bravo Jonas Dostert

Superb pinot noir from Tobias Feiden from Winningen. Aged for 24 months on barrique and with 20% 'whole bunch' fermentation.

Julien Renard's Riesling Blonde is not a Riesling, as you might expect from the name, but a so-called grape ale or beer-wine hybrid.

Riesling from Valwiger Herrenberg (40-70 year old vines, mostly ungrafted, grey slate and grauwacke, exposition south) crushed and macerated overnight before pressing, 26 months of ageing in barrique/tonneau.

This Riesling is intense yet compact. High extraction and precise acidity. Despite the warm year of 2022, it is bone dry and elegantly structured.

There is a hint of “natural” funk in the aftertaste but this just adds to the complexity and beauty of this amazing Sekt. What a great success! 2024-2029. Mosel Fine Wines No67 Sept 2023.
