WINE DESCRIPTION
Selbach-Oster Selbach Incline Riesling is a premium quality wine produced by the renowned Selbach-Oster winery. This wine comes from the Mosel appellation, which is known for its steep vineyards and slate soils that impart a unique minerality to the wines. The Selbach Incline vineyard is particularly steep, which makes it challenging to cultivate, but also results in grapes with concentrated flavors and aromas. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes and slow fermentation to preserve the delicate fruit flavors and aromas. The resulting wine is a classic Mosel Riesling with a crisp acidity, vibrant fruit flavors, and a refreshing finish. It is a perfect wine to pair with spicy Asian cuisine or to enjoy on its own as an aperitif.
