Olaf Schneider Riesling Ungsberg Spätlese 2011 0,75l

Riesling Spätlese Ungsberg from Olaf Schneider also originates from the steep slate terraces above Traben Trarbach on the Mosel. The nose offers juicy citrus, green apple, ripe mirabelle and a hint of white blossom. Smoky slate notes and a gentle herbal touch add complexity. On the palate the Spätlese is precise and delicate, with fine sweetness, lively acidity and a slender frame. The playful tension between fruit, residual sugar and minerality drives a long, mouthwatering finish. A classic Mosel Riesling that shines with aromatic Asian cuisine, spicy fish dishes or simply as an elegant aperitif.

The grape variety: Riesling

Riesling is a noble white grape famous for citrus fruit, stone fruit, floral notes and vibrant acidity. It can be dry, off-dry, sparkling or beautifully sweet.
