Trittenheimer Apotheke Auslese

Mosel Riesling

The Clusserath-Eiffel Trittenheimer Apotheke Auslese is a classic white Riesling from the renowned Mosel region. This wine showcases a beautifully balanced profile with a delicate body that elegantly carries the pronounced fruit intensity typical of the Riesling varietal. The acidity is vibrant and refreshing, adding a lively character to each sip. Tannins are not a factor in this wine, allowing the pure fruit flavors to shine through. The overall impression is one of a dry finish that complements the refreshing nature of this distinguished Riesling.

Region:

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.
