Hofberg "In der Sengerei" Riesling feinherb - VDP.Weingut A. J. Adam

A delicate, elegant Mosel Riesling with great clarity and cool tension. The “Sengerei” parcel in the warm front part of the Dhroner Hofberg counts among the historical Grand Crus of the Middle Mosel – presented here in a precise, off-dry interpretation.

On the nose, the wine is cool and complex, with fresh pear, quince, and candied lemon peel, complemented by delicate floral notes, grated flint, and a hint of smoky slate spice.

On the palate, the Riesling is vibrant, juicy, and light-footed, carried by a fine, lively acidity and a striking, almost icy-salty minerality. A minimal, finely integrated residual sweetness elegantly balances the cool Mosel acidity. The finish is long, animating, and of playful elegance.

Here, over 70-year-old Riesling vines grow on traditional single stakes, on grey Devonian slate with characteristic iron oxide veins in the rock.

Following a selective manual harvest, the grapes were gently pressed as whole bunches, fermented 100% spontaneously, and subsequently aged on the full lees in a mixture of traditional Fuder casks and stainless steel.

A Mosel Riesling with great length and remarkable aging potential.
