Julian Haart's Mosel Riesling is certainly a wine of great character and quality. The freshness and sharp acidity make this Riesling particularly lively and suitable for accompanying fish, seafood or vegetable-based dishes. The practice of whole bunch fermentation, together with aging in wooden fuder, contributes to giving complexity and depth to the wine, while maintaining its typical freshness of Riesling. Furthermore, although limited production may be a shame for enthusiasts, it is often an indication of craftsmanship and particular attention to quality.

The Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Kabinett by Julian Haart is a taut white, with sharp acidity, crisp and consistent structure. The grapes come from old vineyards located on the steep “Goldtröpfchen” slope, already considered in legendary times one of the best terroirs of the Moselle. Whole bunch fermentation and aging in traditional 1000 L wooden fuders. It's a shame about the very limited production because its wines are a real delight.

Molitor's Riesling Alte Reben Trocken is a white wine obtained from pure Riesling grapes. This is the oldest vintage available. The scent is buttery and tropical, leeches and passion fruit on chalk and burnt rubber. In the glass it evolves into a disarming complexity, surprising freshness on the palate. Peach and lemon on the nose, flint. Burnt rubber now looks like oil. Long and austere, fresh and drinkable. A great emotion.
