✨ Technical Specifications
The Schubertslay is one of the Mosel's most legendary and historic vineyards, a tiny, precipitously steep amphitheater of blue Devonian slate situated in Piesport. This site is celebrated for its ancient, ungrafted Riesling vines, some of which are over a century old. Julian Haart, drawing on his training with icons like Klaus Peter Keller and Egon Müller, coaxes an ethereal complexity from this prized terroir. The '3-Star' Auslese represents the absolute pinnacle of selection, crafted only in exceptional vintages when noble botrytis develops perfectly. Utilizing traditional spontaneous fermentation in old oak Fuder, Haart achieves a sublime tension between luscious, honeyed sweetness and a piercing, mineral-driven acidity. It is a liquid monument to the Mosel's historic winemaking heritage, marrying rich concentration with a feather-light elegance.
