While Julian Haart is globally renowned for his steep-slope Mosel masterpieces, his Molsheimer Riesling represents an exciting venture into the limestone-rich terroir of Rheinhessen. This connection was forged through his close bond with mentor Klaus Peter Keller, who helped Haart secure prime parcels in Molsheim. Unlike the slate-driven profiles of his Mosel wines, this dry Riesling thrives on active limestone soils, yielding a wine of incredible structural tension, chalky minerality, and vibrant citrus energy. Crafted with spontaneous fermentation and minimal intervention, it beautifully marries Haart's signature precision and crystalline purity with the broader, textured power characteristic of Rheinhessen's finest white wines.
🍾 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.
