WINE DESCRIPTION
Schloss Johannisberg Gelblack Riesling trocken is a premium dry white wine produced by Schloss Johannisberg, a renowned winery located in the Rheingau region of Germany. The wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the vineyards surrounding the historic Schloss Johannisberg castle. The vineyards are situated on steep slopes with south-facing exposure, which allows for optimal ripening of the grapes. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and full of vibrant citrus and stone fruit flavors, with a hint of minerality.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Schloss Johannisberg Gelblack Riesling trocken is a wonderful example of this classic German varietal.An aromatic nose of peaches, apricots and white flowers lead to a lively and zesty palate of citrus, green apple and mineral notes. The balanced acidity and medium body make it a great match for seafood and light poultry dishes. Enjoy this refreshingly crisp and elegant Riesling with friends.
