Karthauserhofberg - Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2012 (375ml)

This is a stunning dry Riesling featuring notes of apple, pear, lemongrass and green tea. It has a delicate palate with nice minerality, complexity and a long finish.

Karthauserhofberg Description

The famed monopole Karthäuserhofberg vineyard faces south and stretches up to 254 meters with vertigo-inspiring gradients up to 55%. The unique microclimate of the area, plus the distinctive Devonian slate soil, has created the ideal combination for producing unforgettable Rieslings that age brilliantly. Pair with a pork loin roast.

Viticulture has been practiced at the site of the Karthäuserhof estate since Roman time, but the winery proper took the reigns in 1335, placing it among the ten oldest functioning wineries in the world. They know their soils, and they know their vineyards to say the least. While the estate is famous for its array of dry Rieslings, this is one of the true gems of German winemaking
