WINE DESCRIPTION
Weingut Vollenweider Wolfer Goldgrube Riesling Spätlese is a premium wine produced by Weingut Vollenweider, a renowned winery in the Mosel region of Germany. The wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the Goldgrube vineyard, which is known for its steep slopes and slate soil that impart unique mineral flavors to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and slow fermentation to preserve the natural aromas and flavors of the fruit. The resulting wine is a Spätlese, which means it is made from late-harvested grapes and has a slightly sweeter taste than other Rieslings. This wine is a perfect example of the Mosel's signature style of Riesling, with its delicate balance of sweetness, acidity, and minerality.
