{"title":"Riesling","description":"\u003ch1\u003e Buy or order Riesling wine\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv id=\"text\"\u003eRiesling, the grape variety with such great diversity, grows in as many as 20 different countries, but it is most famous in Germany and, of course, in France, specifically Alsace. The Riesling grape is mentioned in books as early as the fifteenth century, so we can safely say that this grape has certainly earned its reputation. The white Riesling grape is derived from the Gouais Blanc grape, from which Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, among others, are descended. The first vineyards were \u003cspan\u003efound in Germany along the banks of the Rhine and, of course, in the beautiful Alsace wine region of France. Here, the absolute top vines of Riesling are found, and where the royal wines are made. Speaking of royal wines, in Germany, Riesling itself is called \"the Queen of Grapes.\" And yes, there's certainly something to that: a grape that produces beautiful, full-bodied wines with unique flavors and aromas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe Riesling thrives in a cooler climate, with relatively abundant sunshine, but with the cooling effects of nighttime, mountain breezes, or riverbanks. The Riesling grape naturally has high acidity, resulting in a rich, fresh white wine. As the grapes ripen longer on the vines, the Riesling becomes more robust and floral in flavor. For a top-quality Riesling wine, the soil in which the vines grow is essential. The vines prefer a chalky soil with plenty of soil and slate. This ensures the grapes receive everything they need, and you can expect a top-notch Riesling wine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e What does a Riesling taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e \n\u003cspan\u003eTasting notes of a Riesling wine. Well, many Rieslings share similar characteristics. We often noted aromas of lime, apricots, a touch of mint, and floral notes. Sometimes a bit of smoke, grapefruit, and nutmeg. Overripe Riesling is for the more experienced wine drinker, as you often smell and taste notes of petroleum, almonds, and raisins. The palate of a Riesling is oily in its structure, with a richness of yellow fruit such as apricots, peaches, and melon. Often, on the back of the tongue, a beautiful palate of overripe pineapple, dried herbs, and some stone fruit. A mature and bottle-aged Riesling exhibits very intense flavors of currants, dried yellow fruit, and vanilla, as well as rich tannins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe drinking temperature of a Riesling wine is higher than that of an average white wine. Give the Riesling more warmth and it will develop its finest aromas and flavors that would otherwise remain suppressed. Around 8 degrees Celsius is the perfect drinking temperature for a top-notch Riesling; experience the difference.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e What do we eat with a Riesling wine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cspan id=\"moreText\"\u003eYes, Riesling often pairs well with Asian cuisine, but also with Moroccan and Thai dishes. If you're preparing a nice piece of white fish, Riesling is also a wonderful pairing. Meat with a spicy marinade is also a perfect partner for Riesling. Other spicy dishes are also perfectly paired with a white Riesling.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"dopff-au-moulin-riesling-cuvee-europe","title":"Dopff Au Moulin Riesling Cuvee Europe","description":"With roots dating back to 1574, Dopff Au Moulin is synonymous with tradition and quality, positioning itself as one of the most venerable family wineries in the world.

The soil, with its geological, geographical, and climatic characteristics, is an integral part of a wine's unique origins and ultimate flavor profile.\n\n\n \nQuality is achieved during the grapes' growth, which at Johannisberg is supported by organized vineyard management tailored to local conditions. The quality of the grapes is determined in the vineyard, not during vinification. The quality of the crop after harvest determines the quality of the finished wine. The typical soil composition is Taunus quartzite under a topsoil of loam. The grape, a quasi-spokesperson for the soil, expresses the entire influence on the taste of the finished wine. Riesling has been the only variety grown in the vineyard for almost 300 years. The soil and the grape, combined with the favorable climatic conditions and long winemaking tradition of Schloss Johannisberg, produce wines that reflect the inimitable character of their origins. In this way, Johannisberg is a magnificent monument to the diversity of Riesling, which found its true home in the vineyard surrounding the castle on the 50th parallel north.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested by hand and gently crushed.

The grapes were harvested by hand and then gently pressed. Half of the fermentation took place in oak barrels made from the castle's own oak.

This opulent German wine is made by Weinhaus Gebr Steffen, known locally as Steffen. This family business, which dates back to 1794, is located in Germany's most famous wine region: the Mosel. For over 200 years, they have amazed everyone with their exquisite wines. This Steffen Rheinhessen Spatlese is an ideal wine for sweet white wine lovers.\n\n\n\n \u003ch2\u003eSteffen's vineyards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n Anyone who's ever driven along the Mosel River will be stunned by the sight: steep slopes topped with thousands upon thousands of vines. This is certainly true for the vineyards of Weinhaus Steffen. It was founded by Johann Steffen in the small, idyllic village of Trittenheim, about a half-hour drive from Trier. Primarily indigenous varieties allow Steffen to create some of the most exceptional German wines. Steffen Rheinhessen Spatlese uses the ever-familiar Riesling, a true all-rounder from German vineyards.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Impressions of Steffen Rheinhessen Spatlese\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nSteffen Rheinhessen Spatlese owes its sweet character to the late harvest of the grapes. Riesling grapes are picked late, allowing them to accumulate more sugar. After harvest, the grapes are transported to the winery in Trittenheim, where, under the close watch of the Steffen family, they are selected, pressed, and fermented. Because so much attention is paid to the production of Steffen Rheinhessen Spatlese, the quality is exceptionally high. Your senses will immediately recognize this quality. Steffen Rheinhessen Spatlese is bursting with ripe fruit, which forgives its sweet character. A hint of citrus adds a touch of freshness to the white wine. This makes the wine sweet, but absolutely not cloying.","brand":"Wijntransport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775788126287,"sku":"10239","price":4.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/rheinhessen-spatlese-steffen_10239.webp?v=1770120352"},{"product_id":"mure-riesling-clos-saint-landelin","title":"Mure Riesling Clos Saint Landelin","description":"The Muré Riesling Clos Saint Landelin is a superb Riesling with subtle aromas of orange, lemon, and peach.

This wine has the potential to age for years, after which this Muré Riesling will only become more concentrated and mature. This Muré Riesling Clos Saint Landelin can age for at least another ten years.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Constant improvement at the Muré winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nClos Saint Landelin, the Muré family's home in Rouffach, covers fifteen hectares. It forms the southern boundary of the Vorbourg Grand Cru. Due to the steep, south-facing slopes, terrace cultivation is the only option here. The soil is a stony, clayey-limestone subsoil composed of Bajocian calcareous sandstone and Oligocene calcareous conglomerates. The intense sunlight contributes to the terroir's distinctive character. Today, the twelfth generation is at the helm. Veronique Muré and her brother Thomas work together to ensure the winery guarantees top quality.

Winds from the north and west provide perfect ripening conditions. The very steep slopes require terraces. The clay-limestone topsoil is very stony; the subsoil is composed of Bajocian calcareous sandstone with Oligocene limestone conglomerates. The vineyard is both biodynamic and organically certified. The vines are planted at a high density, approximately 10,000 plants per hectare.\n\n\n\n The finest dry wine from Muré. An iconic Riesling that can age for 20 years. Tons of tension, pear and lychee, and a vibrant minerality.
