✨ Technical Specifications
The Piesporter Goldtröpfchen is one of the Mosel's most iconic grand cru vineyards, shaped like a dramatic, south-facing amphitheater that hugs the winding river. Its name, translating to 'droplets of gold,' refers to a local legend of morning dew glistening like gold on the steep, sun-drenched slate slopes. Julian Haart's 'Alte Reben' (old vines) bottling from this site harnesses the deep root systems of ancient vines that cling to the devonian slate. Crafted with minimal intervention and spontaneous fermentation in traditional oak Fuder, this Spätlese represents a masterclass in tension, balancing luscious stone fruit sweetness with a vibrant, electric mineral acidity.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 2010 by Julian and Nadine Haart, Weingut Julian Haart is situated in the historic village of Piesport along Germany's Middle Mosel. Having honed his craft under iconic masters such as Klaus Peter Keller and Egon Müller, Julian quickly established his boutique estate as one of Germany's most revered modern cult producers. Cultivating prized, precipitous slate terroirs including Piesporter Goldtröpfchen, Wintricher Ohligsberg, and the legendary ungrafted vines of Schubertslay, the winery prioritizes meticulous vineyard management and low-intervention cellar practices. Julian Haart is acclaimed for producing breathtakingly crystalline, tension-filled Rieslings and refined Pinot Noirs that showcase extraordinary precision, electric acidity, and profound site-specific minerality.
