The Hofgut Falkenstein Krettnacher Euchariusberg Riesling from the renowned Mosel region is a remarkable expression of its terroir. This 2010 vintage showcases a lovely light-bodied character, perfectly balanced by its vibrant acidity that adds a refreshing dimension to the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing layers of juicy stone fruits and a delightful touch of citrus that dances elegantly on the tongue. With a touch of residual sugar, this wine is off-dry, making it an inviting choice that appeals to both casual sippers and dedicated wine enthusiasts alike.

Mosel

When it comes to quality Riesling, few places can rival Germany's Mosel region. This sheer-sided valley in Germany parallels the river of the same name and is home to some of the world's steepest vineyards. Riesling grown here is prized throughout the world for its slight sweetness, perfectly balanced by crisp acidity and aromatic floral perfume. Notes of green fruit and Meyer lemon add to the pleasant tang, with mineral touches of wet slate, beeswax and—in some aged examples—even petroleum too. It is all thanks to Mosel's very cool climate. Temperatures in the summer often don't even rise above 65 degrees. This allows for a long growing season, concentrating flavors and creating beautiful acidity.
