Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett (Gold Capsule)
-
Description :
Gold Capsule: Sweet
Quality level: Kabinett
Vineyard: The Ürziger Würzgarten site is traditionally considered to be a specialty among the Middle Mosel vineyards because of its red iron-rich soil, which is mixed with fine slate. This gives the wines grown here a totally different character, with spice and opulent fruit as well as a crisp, hearty backbone, which produces a tremendously full-bodied wine when combined with a hint of residual sugar.
Vinification: The grapes were softly crushed and macerated for several hours on the skins. After maceration the juice was fermented using only natural yeasts. The wine rests on the lees following fermentation producing a balanced and aromatic wine.Grape varieties :
Riesling
Soil :
Red iron-rich soil mixed with fine slate
Alcohol :
7.5%
Tasting notes :
"A sumptuous and delicious nose made of whipped cream, yellow peach, cassis, raspberry, candied mango and spices leads to an Auslese styled wine with juicy cream and ample juicy fruits on the palate. The wine is animating, smooth and delicate in the very long and juicy finish. This is quite superb in a comparatively rich but no less satisfying style for the category." (Mosel Fine Wines, Issue 38)
