Eiswein

2010 Rheingau Riesling

Schloss Vollrads Eiswein 2010 is an exquisite white wine from the prestigious Rheingau region in Germany, known for its exceptional Rieslings. This Eiswein presents a captivating golden hue, indicative of its concentrated sweetness brought about by overripe grapes harvested in freezing conditions. With a full-bodied character, it offers a luscious mouthfeel that envelops the palate. The acidity is remarkably bright, providing an invigorating balance to the wine's rich profile. It showcases a prominent fruit intensity, with delightful notes of apricot, honey, and ripe citrus that dance harmoniously in each sip. Enjoying this Eiswein is a decadent experience, as it finishes delightfully sweet yet elegantly dry, making it the perfect companion for various desserts or as a stand-alone indulgence.

Rheingau

Germany's most famous wine region, the small but mighty Rheingau has built its stellar reputation on its delightfully dry Riesling. Thanks to the south-facing aspect of the Rhine Valley's slopes here—plus the shelter provided by the Taunus hills—the Rheingau's vineyards enjoy a unique mesoclimate that helps grapes ripen perfectly. As a result, these medium- to full-bodied white wines often display satisfying flavors of ripe peach. Fans of red wine should also look out for its Pinot Noir (known locally as Spätburgunder), which usually comes from vineyards near the village of Assmannhausen.
