Fio Riesling Ratzelhaft 750ml
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Rätzelhaft means ‘to riddle' and originally the idea here was to use long lees contact, a specific blending of vineyards, and age in bottle to remove the imprint of the grape variety, posing a riddle for the taster. The blend is from the steep slopes of these hallowed vineyards: Günterslay, which gives an herbal character, Goltröpfchen, which gives the power of a south-facing site. Falkenberg which gives a yellow fruitness, and Freudenberg, imparting lightness and freshness. Grape: Riesling Region: Mosel Vineyard: Piesporter Goltröpfchen, Piesporter Günterslay, Piesporter Falkenberg, Piesporter Freudenberg Fermentation and élevage: Natural fermentation in fuder and doppelfuder from the 1940s and 1960s; kept on the lees for 24 months Farming: Practicing Organic |
