Germany, Mosel: Riesling 2022

9% ABV, 750 mL.

Featured in the New York Times “This excellent family estate farms biodynamically, primarily on perilously steep slopes in the Mosel Valley in Germany. Handwerk is Melsheimer’s entry-level wine, a terrific introduction to its luminous, pure, energetic rieslings. Lovely. It’s light-bodied, but full of peachy, earthy, mineral flavors and it tastes quite dry, though it has a touch of residual sugar.”

Thorsten Melsheimer has been farming organically in the Mosel since 1995 (certified ECOVIN) and became Demeter (biodynamic) certified in 2013. The 'Handwerk' is actually a blend of three different barrels: a QBA trocken, Kabinett, and Spätlese.
