Staff Picks

Ed Draves: August 12, 2011

From the steep slopes of the mighty Mosel River in Germany comes one of our best values. Offers luscious orange, grapefruit, tangerine and lime, mixed with ripe peach and mineral overtones and finishing with fantastic grapefruit acidity. Make this your next “go to” German Riesling.

Member Store Reviews

Good soil makes good wine, and these vineyards are steep, well-drained and drenched in good sun exposure. Elegant and racy with a polished texture. Naturally sweet, well made and pure. Stone fruits evolve in the glass with a bright, cheery finish. Pairs well with light appetizers or rainbow trout with grilled asparagus.

What a luscious, off-dry German Riesling! It is nice and smooth, medium-bodied with a touch of gooseberry sweetness. The flavor profile of this wine shows granny smith apple, honeydew melon and has nicely balanced acidity and minerality. Perfect for sipping alone or serving with fresh shucked clams or oysters.
