Info

Konstantin Weiser and Alexandra Künstler run this small, 4ha winery organically. Next to Clemens Busch, the two of them form the Sperrspitze in this area. A large part of the steep slopes is in single-pole cultivation and thus very time-consuming to work. Blue slate forms the base in the vineyards in Trarbach and Enkirch. Grape quality is the top priority for both of them. They attach importance to moderate Oechsle values and a crisp acid structure. The fermentation takes place spontaneously to 100%. The dry qualities are traditionally vinified in barrels. With the residual sweet and noble sweet wines Inox comes into play. Oxidation plays a controlled role during the vinification in order to bring out the minerality. The wines should never be fruit-oriented. The maturation on the yeast is untypically long for the region. However, from my point of view, this has a noticeably positive effect on the mouthfeel.

Color

Light golden yellow, green reflections.

Nose

The nose absolutely stands for the grape variety and the origin of this wine. This is pure Riesling. Pure Mosel. Crystal clear in its fruit expression, it presents lime, lemon as well as green apple and peach. Also a slightly smoky component can not be denied.

Palate

Uncomplicated, light and low in alcohol. The whole with a moderate acidity. The play of aromas repeats itself also here typical for the grape variety. The slate spice is discreet in the background. However, one would not want to miss this in it. A hint of wet stone comes through in the finish along with fresh mint. All in all, a cleanly vinified prime example of a Mosel Riesling.
