Weingut C. von Nell-Breuning Kaseler Dominikanerberg Riesling Spatlese 2016 / 2016 (Trocken)

Berlin Wine Trophy - Gold Medal (2014)

The delineated, enclosed Kaseler Dominikanerberg vineyard is one of Germany's rare monopole estates, owned exclusively by the von Nell-Breuning family. With its steep slopes, Dominikanerberg provides the perfect conditions for brilliantly fruity Rieslings. It features barren slate ground, with hard blue slate slabs which imbue the wines with a distinctive minerality. The steep south to south-west facing slope’s gradients average 50%.

Tasting Notes:
(2014 Spätlese Halbtrocken)
This Riesling Spätlese off-dry brings a nice sweetness and fruitiness, paired with a distinctive minerality in the form of a very herbal, long-lasting taste. It is a complex and elegant wine, which flavours develop when you give some time to the wine - let it breathe in the glass for some minutes before enjoying.

(2016 Spätlese Trocken)
2016 Riesling Spätlese dry brings a bright aroma of citrus and hawthorn combined with some herbal notes. The wine is structured on the palate with a mineral touch and a long after-taste. 2016 Riesling Spätlese dry can be well combined with fish, chicken or white meat. The wine is light but shows depth and strength at the same time. It stands for a classical dry Riesling from the cool wine-growing region of Mosel / Ruwer Valley.

(2016 Spätlese)
2016 Riesling Spätlese is a very impressive and still young wine with excellent maturing potential. Elegant notes of flint-stone – a very typical expression of the Ruwer Valley´s terroir - combined with pear, mirabelle plum, herbs and slate. Delicate fruit on the palate with a touch of wild strawberries, showing the first suggestion of this wine’s great potential. Very smooth and creamy. Long on the finish.
2016 Riesling Spätlese goes well with a variety of dishes, such as shellfish, spicy food, goose as well as soft cheeses with washed rind & mild blue cheeses.
