2018er Blauschiefer Hochgewächs Riesling fruchtsüss

Late release - lange Reifezeit, gefüllt Anfang 2020

Der Blauschiefer ist ein ausgesprochen weicher Devon-Verwitterungsschieferboden, der dem Wein besonders viele Mineralien verleiht. Das zeichnet ihn mit Finesse und Eleganz aus.

88/100 – Mosel Fine Wines „The 2018er Riesling Hochgewächs Blauschiefer is a fruity-styled wine (with 50 g/l of residual sugar) made from fruit picked in steep parts of the Zeltinger Himmelreich and Schlossberg, and which was given an extended aging (16 months) in tank, hence the late AP number. It offers a delicately ripe nose made of pear, melon, wet stone, and fine spices, all wrapped into a whiff of lemony elements. The wine is soft and delicately sweet on the palate, but the flavors are lifted up by some nice acidity in the long finish. A touch of primary melon-driven sweetness dominates the wine at this early stage in the aftertaste, even if the acidity is already showing its hands in the background. This wine will need a solid decade to develop its full grace. 2028-2038"
