Rheingau Riesling Grünlack Spätlese di Schloss Johannisberg is a German white wine made from Riesling grown in the Rheingau, in the vineyards of the Schloss Johannisberg estate. The style remains fresh and vibrant, with a clean aromatic profile and a citrusy finish that offers mineral and saline hints. Vinification mainly takes place in steel with a brief maceration on the skins; a small portion ferments in wood with indigenous yeasts and the wine then rests on the lees for several months. From where it comes The grapes come from the vineyards of Schloss Johannisberg, in the Rheingau, a German area renowned for Riesling. The vineyards lie at about 180 meters above sea level and benefit from temperature fluctuations that help preserve freshness and aroma. The soil, composed of sand, slate, and red clay, contributes to a tense texture and mineral sensations that characterize the palate. How it is produced The winemaking favors steel to maintain aromatic precision and flavor lift. The must undergoes a brief maceration on the skins for a few hours, to extract aromatic components without weighing down the structure. A small portion ferments in wooden barrels from the surrounding forests with indigenous yeasts; after fermentation, the wine matures on the lees for several months, achieving continuity and balance in the finish. Tasting notes In the glass it presents a pale straw yellow, bright. On the nose, grapefruit, geranium, and chamomile are perceived, with a mineral and saline trace. On the palate it is fresh and vibrant, with a taut progression and a pleasantly persistent citrus finish, coherent with steel vinification and lees aging. With what to pair It lends itself as an aperitif wine, thanks to the freshness it offers on the palate. At table it pairs with aged cheeses, with a successful pairing with gorgonzola where the tasting tension balances creaminess and intensity. It is also suited to refined desserts, when one desires an aromatic but measured white. The Riesling Trocken Grosses Gewächs Silberlack from Schloss Johannisberg is a wine of great prestige, coming from the vineyards in the Rheingau region. Produced entirely from Riesling grapes, this wine expresses the essence of the unique terroir of the Taunus massif, characterized by deep layers of red clay and quartz, which confer extraordinary mineral character to the wine. Vinification, following a strict selection of the grapes, involves fermentation in steel for the majority of the mass, with a remaining portion aged in wooden barrels. The wine then matures for 6 months on the lees, developing depth and intensity. In the glass it presents an intense bright lemon yellow. On the nose it releases elegant scents of fresh white flowers, apricot, and peach with nut, enriched by mineral notes, lavender and sage. On the palate it is dry, soft and warm, with an explosive fruity-mineral succulence and a persistent finish characterized by spicy hints and vibrant fruity freshness. Perfect as an aperitif, this white wine pairs magnificently with crustaceans, mollusks, and fresh cheeses. SALE RESTRICTED TO EEA COUNTRIES ONLY.
