✨ Technical Specifications
Julian Haart's Riesling Kabinett Old Vines (often designated as 'Alte Reben') represents the pinnacle of the classic, feather-light Mosel style. Sourced from ancient, deep-rooted vines planted on precipitously steep, slate-rich slopes, this wine captures the essence of its dramatic terroir. The old vines naturally yield smaller, highly concentrated berries that balance intense mineral depth with vibrant acidity. In the cellar, Haart employs a low-intervention approach, utilizing spontaneous fermentation in traditional vessels to preserve the pristine purity of the fruit. Historically, the Mosel region has been celebrated for this unique style of Kabinett—where low alcohol, delicate residual sweetness, and a piercing backbone of acidity create an ethereal, dancing sensation on the palate that is virtually impossible to replicate anywhere else in the world.
🍾 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.
