What it pairs with

  • Roast pork with crackling
    Riesling acidity cuts the fat and the orchard fruit echoes apple-sauce accompaniment.
  • Roast capon
    Power and density match the rich roast poultry.
  • Mosel river trout meuniere
    Bright slate-driven acidity and citrus mirror the brown-butter and lemon of the local fish.

History

A dry Grosses Gewachs from the Brauneberger Klostergarten: ripe, powerful and slate-driven, showing the warm-site density of the Mittelmosel.
