Schieferkopf Riesling trocken, Via Saint Jacques 2019 0,75l

Schieferkopf Riesling Via Saint Jacques comes from steep plots close to the historic pilgrims’ route, rooted in a unique strip of ancient blue schist. The grapes are hand‑picked, gently pressed and fermented with native yeasts in large old casks. The bouquet offers varietal citrus notes, ripe pineapple, gentle spice and hints of wild herbs. On the palate the wine is juicy, linear and intensely mineral, with precise fruit and a distinctly salty finish. Lively, well‑integrated acidity provides tension and plenty of drive. This characterful Riesling is ideal with seafood, Asian‑inspired cuisine and aromatic vegetable dishes.

Ten months in large foudres give the Riesling poise and round out its aromatic, salty-fresh structure.
