WINE DESCRIPTION
Weiser-Künstler Riesling is a prized wine, a testament to the artistry of Konstantin Weiser and Alexandra Künstler. Emerging from their dream turned reality in 2005, the estate now stands among Traben-Trarbach's top wineries. Utilizing historic Grand Cru sites like Trarbacher Gaispfad and Enkircher Zeppwingert, centuries-old gems of the Mosel, they craft unhurried Rieslings in harmony with nature. This sought-after wine reflects the duo's expertise and the exceptional terroir's influence. The vineyards, including well-drained soils and optimal sun exposure, yield grapes with concentrated flavors. Meticulous winemaking ensures vibrant acidity, expressive aromatics, and a harmonious fruit-minerality balance.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Weiser-Künstler Riesling is an elegant wine from the Mosel.On the nose, expect enticing aromas of ripe peach, green apple, and citrus zest. These fruity notes are complemented by hints of white flowers and a touch of minerality, adding complexity to the bouquet.
The palate is equally impressive, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. The flavors of juicy stone fruits, such as apricot and nectarine, dance on the tongue, while zesty lemon and lime provide a refreshing citrus twist. The wine's crisp acidity gives it a lively and vibrant character, making it a fantastic choice for those who appreciate a well-balanced Riesling.
The Weiser-Künstler Riesling is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. Its acidity and fruitiness make it an excellent companion for seafood, particularly shellfish and grilled fish. It also pairs beautifully with spicy Asian cuisine, as the wine's sweetness helps to balance the heat of the dishes.
