✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the cool, wind-swept Saar valley, a tributary of the Mosel, the Oberemmler Karlsberg vineyard is renowned for its steep, south-southwest-facing slopes rich in iron-bearing Devonian slate. Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt coaxes an extraordinary expression of Riesling from this site. The Auslese is crafted from meticulously hand-selected grapes, often touched by noble rot (botrytis), which concentrates the sugars, acids, and mineral complexity. Fermented slowly to preserve the pristine, vibrant fruit character, this wine beautifully balances luscious sweetness with the Saar's trademark electric, laser-like acidity. Historically, the Saar wines were highly prized in the late 19th century, often fetching higher prices than First Growth Bordeaux, and this Auslese carries that noble legacy forward with its intense notes of candied citrus, stone fruit, and smoky slate minerality.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt har en dokumenteret vinhistorie, der strækker sig helt tilbage til 1349, og er en af de mest traditionsrige og anerkendte vingårde i den tyske Mosel-region. Vingården har siden 1978 været ejet af Reh-familien og har sit hovedsæde på Schloss Marienlay i Ruwer-dalen. Ejendommen råder over en helt enestående portefølje af marker fordelt over de tre karakteristiske floddale: Mosel, Saar og Ruwer. Produktionen er næsten udelukkende helliget Riesling på stejle skråninger, og vinhuset forvalter verdensberømte VDP.Grosse Lage-marker som Scharzhofberger i Saar, Kaseler Nies'chen i Ruwer samt deres historiske Mosel-monopol, Josephshöfer. Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt er berømmet for at skabe terroir-trofaste og udpræget mineralske Riesling-vine, der spænder fra sprøde, tørre fortolkninger til dybe, lagringsværdige ædelsøde Prädikat-vine.
