In the glass
What it pairs with
-
Roast pork with crackling
Riesling acidity cuts the fat and the orchard fruit echoes apple-sauce accompaniment. -
Roast chicken with herbs
Concentration and dry-tasting power match the roast bird. -
Mosel river trout meuniere
Bright slate-driven acidity and citrus mirror the brown-butter and lemon of the local fish.
History
A dry-tasting Auslese-ripeness Riesling under Molitor's white-capsule code from the Zeltinger Sonnenuhr: concentrated, powerful and dry on the palate despite high must weight.
