Crafted by a legendary domain with extensive history, this Riesling Trocken entices with its energy. More info

This Riesling trocken (dry) comes from young vines planted around fifteen years ago. The domain ferments the juice at a controlled temperature of 16°C in order to preserve the purity of the grapes. The wine is then matured on lees for a month. In the glass we find a pale, golden wine with gentle, green shimmers. Its aromatic bouquet offers notes of white fruit (apple, pear), white flowers, and citrus. We find these same flavours on the palate, lifted by a fine acidity that confers at once a freshness and good ageing potential. We recommend enjoying this cuvée within its first ten years. You could pair it with a simple, seafood dish such as a creamy risotto; the energy of the wine will complement the unctuous, melted parmesan.

Rheingau Schloss Johannisberg Trocken Gelblack serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Risotto crémeux, Ceviche de dorade au citron vert, Rillettes aux deux saumons.
