Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections, brilliant and clear in the glass, typical of a young Mosel Riesling from ungrafted vines.<\/p>\n
A fascinating bouquet of crystalline precision. Stone fruit<\/strong> and Citrus fruits<\/strong> dominate, underpinned by a striking minerality reminiscent of wet slate. Fine notes of green apple, lime zest and a subtle herbal spiciness complete the complex flavour profile.<\/p>\n The true greatness of this wine is revealed on the palate. Taut and focussed with an impressive acidity structure that is never aggressive. The subtle residual sweetness perfectly balances the vibrant acidity. Salty minerality<\/strong> runs like a red thread through the entire flavour and testifies to the exceptional terroir of the Gaispfad. The finish is long and precise, with a subtle spiciness and a hint of flint.<\/p>\n This Riesling comes from one of the most impressive steep slopes on the Moselle, the Gaispfad, where 55-year-old, ungrafted vines are rooted in weathered slate soil. The grapes are cultivated with minimal intervention and fermented with natural yeasts. At 11.0% alcohol, the wine is slender and elegant, with just a hint of residual sweetness that is perfectly integrated into the structure.<\/p>\n An ideal companion to Seafood<\/strong>especially to Oysters<\/strong> and Grilled sea bass<\/strong>. It also harmonises with Asian dishes<\/strong> with medium sharpness and Goat cheese<\/strong>. The fine acidity structure also makes it the perfect partner for Dishes with citrus notes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The Gaispfad 2022 from Weiser-K\u00fcnstler exemplifies the philosophy of this up-and-coming Moselle winery: authenticity, terroir expression and artisanal winemaking. The long ageing on the fine lees gives the wine additional complexity and depth. Already accessible despite its youth, this Riesling will continue to gain in complexity over the next 10-15 years. An impressive example of how precise and multi-layered a Mosel Riesling can be when tradition and careful cellar techniques come together.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
