The Schubertslay is a mythical vineyard site in the Mosel, a sheer wall of blue slate rising directly above the river. This tiny, grand cru parcel is home to precious, ungrafted Riesling vines, some of which are over a century old. Julian Haart's Piesporter Schubertslay Riesling Kabinett Nr6 represents the pinnacle of Mosel's feather-light yet intensely complex style. The wine is born from these ancient vines, clinging to the precipitous cliffs where every single task must be performed by hand. Haart's masterful touch yields a Kabinett of crystalline purity, where the natural residual sweetness is perfectly countered by a laser-like beam of slate-driven acidity. It is a masterclass in tension, offering delicate notes of white peach, wet stone, and spring blossoms, underpinned by a profound, salty minerality that lingers indefinitely.
🍾 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.
