Burgerspital Wurzburger Stein-Harfe Riesling Spatlese 2022

Description

With a wine-growing area of 110 hectares, Bürgerspital wine-growing estate, at home in a fantastically beautiful courtyard right in the middle of Würzburg, is one of the largest wine-growing estates in Germany and one of the most important.

A combination of the estate’s proud tradition, the wonderful vineyards in their splendid locations, the fecund nature of the soil and the climate make up very fine unique quality wines. Long-matured, carefully nurtured and hand-picked, the grapes arrive at the winery in autumn. Here, they are gently and deftly processed, but it is in the cellar where the quality is formed and preserved.

Tasting Notes

From Steep slopes and carefully selected grapes, short maceration period, spontaneous fermentation, fine lees storage in stainless steel tanks. Pronounced aroma of peaches, impressive balance of sweetness and acidity.

Serving Suggestions

Ideal as an aperitif, for dessert, with rich meat terrines and very spicy Asian dishes, especially recipes with lots of chilli, ginger and curry.
