Wine information

The Riesling comes from the Grand Cru site Schlossberg north of Kientzheim and Kayserberg. The vineyard stretches from 230 to 350 meters above sea level. Thereby, the Schlossberg is so steep that it was terraced. The soil of the Schlossberg is mainly granite and a mixture of greywacke and sandstone. The northern part is influenced by Thannenkirch granite. The soils are extremely rich in minerals.

Color

medium straw yellow

Nose

The Grand Cru Schlossberg opens with a ripe and opulent note of caramelized apples and apricots, candied lemons and ginger, and a hint of honey, while a small cloud of white flowers lies above. The wine exudes a certain sweetness, but also power and freshness.

Palate

Normally, the Trapet Schlossberg Grand Cru Riesling largely vinified dry. In 2010, however, there is definitely some residual sugar here, which makes the wine appear rather semi-dry and somewhat softer than usual. This does not detract from the wine, rather the opposite; because the precise acidity provides a very good balance, and both together provide a delicious, almost cool melting. Again, caramelized or candied citrus, pome and stone fruit combine. There is also a little cool stone and mint.
