Moselland Cat Bottle Riesling
0 kr.
| Grapes for this Riesling are sourced from select vineyards along the Mosel River, where steep slate slopes and a cool climate provide optimal growing conditions. The combination of mineral-rich soils and a long ripening period allows for the development of bright acidity and expressive fruit character. Fermentation in stainless steel preserves the grape’s natural freshness, resulting in a crisp and aromatic wine with a lively personality. |
