Schloss Johannisberger Riesling Kabinett Feinherb 2009

Dette er en nydelig og lett søtlig Riesling, pent balansert av syren, og en smak av kiwi, eple og sitronskall. God mineralitet med en svakt krydret og lang ettersmak.

Drue: 100% Riesling

Drikkes utmerket alene.

«Schloss Johannisberg is best known as the company that discovered Spatlese wines.  Meaning ‘late harvest’, Spatlese was discovered by accident when, in 1775, a courier was sent to the owner of the vineyards, Prince Abbot of Fulda, to get permission to start the harvest. By the time the courier returned, late, the grapes had been infested with Botrytis and had gone bad.  Rather than make no wine, the cellar master decided to make bad wine, and when he tried it the following year, he found that the dehydrated grapes had produced a sweet, and delicious, style of wine.  Nowadays, Schloss Johannisberg don’t use botrytised grapes for their Spatlese, preferring a cleaner style of wine that the use of rotted grapes doesn’t allow.  The result is a superb, late harvest wine with purity of fruit, without the phenolic nuances botrytis brings» – The Tasting Note
