While Julian Haart is synonymous with the steep slate slopes of the Mosel, his deep connection to Rheinhessen—forged during his formative years training under the legendary Klaus Peter Keller—culminates in this extraordinary bottling from the Frauenberg vineyard in Nieder-Flörsheim. Unlike the feather-light, slate-driven Rieslings of his home estate, the Frauenberg introduces a completely different terroir dialogue. Here, ancient limestone soils yield a dry Riesling of immense structure, chalky tension, and deep, resonant minerality. Cultivated with meticulous organic methods and fermented spontaneously with native yeasts, this wine bridges Haart's signature precision with the powerful, sun-drenched intensity of Rheinhessen's finest terroirs, offering a masterclass in purity and focus.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 2010 by Julian Haart in the historic winegrowing village of Piesport, this Mosel estate has quickly risen to cult status. Having trained under legendary mentors like Klaus Peter Keller and Egon Müller, Haart applies a meticulous, hands-on approach to farming steep, slate-rich grand cru vineyards such as Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, Schubertslay, and Wintricher Ohligsberg. The estate's winemaking philosophy relies on organic viticulture, spontaneous fermentation in traditional oak Fuder, and minimal intervention to preserve the natural tension and purity of the fruit. Julian Haart is globally celebrated for producing incredibly precise, mineral-driven, and elegant Rieslings, particularly his legendary, feather-light Kabinett expressions.
