✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the legendary, steep amphitheater of the Piesporter Goldtröpfchen—the 'droplet of gold'—this Kabinett is a masterclass in Mosel tension. According to local lore, the vineyard earned its name from the way the morning sun catches the dew on the grapes, making them glisten like liquid gold. Julian Haart coaxes incredible energy from these ancient, blue Devonian slate soils. Fermented spontaneously in traditional oak Fuder, the 'Nr6' bottling represents a specific cask selection that highlights the feather-light, electric style of classic Kabinett. It balances a delicate, natural sweetness with a piercing, saline minerality and vibrant acidity that dances effortlessly on the palate.
🍾 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.
