✨ Technical Specifications
The Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, or 'droplet of gold,' is one of the Mosel's most legendary grand cru vineyards, famed since Roman times for its steep, amphitheater-like slopes of weathered blue slate that capture and refract the sun's warmth. Julian Haart's Kabinett No. 10 is a masterclass in the traditional Mosel style, sourced from prized parcels within this historic site. Haart employs spontaneous fermentation in old oak Fuder, capturing the natural tension, electric acidity, and salty minerality of the terroir. The wine is celebrated for its feather-light body, vibrant stone fruit aromatics, and a delicate, dancing play between residual sweetness and crystalline acidity. This bottling represents the pinnacle of modern Mosel Kabinett, combining historical heritage with meticulous, low-intervention craftsmanship.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 2010 by Julian Haart alongside his wife Nadine, Weingut Julian Haart has rapidly emerged as one of the Mosel's most revered artisan domains. Born into a multi-century Piesport winegrowing lineage, Julian refined his craft through pivotal apprenticeships under icons Egon Müller, Klaus Peter Keller, and Werner Schönleber. The estate farms approximately five hectares, centering on vertigo-inducing, blue-slate Grand Cru terraces in the Mosel—notably Wintricher Ohligsberg and Piesporter Goldtröpfchen—alongside prestigious limestone parcels in Rheinhessen obtained through parcel exchanges with Keller. Viticulture relies entirely on meticulous manual labor without synthetic inputs, preserving ungrafted, century-old vines. In the cellar, Haart practices spontaneous fermentation in traditional neutral wooden Fuder and stainless steel with minimal intervention. The resulting Rieslings, ranging from razor-sharp dry Kalkstein and site bottlings to ethereal Kabinetts, display crystalline precision, saline tension, filigreed sweetness, and profound slate-driven minerality.
