von Schleinitz at a glance:
Unique yet classic Mosel wines from impossibly steep slopes and
the warmest vineyards along the entire river. Especially lemon-grassy,
Granny-apple flavors. Excellent value for steep-slope wines.

how the wines taste:
They taste subtly of licorice and spiced apples. Lemon-grass
also. Acids tend to taste brilliant and iridescent with-out being
analytically exceptional. The wines are almost always spritzy, and
are piquantly charming; very easy wines to snuggle up to! |

von
Schleinitz Riesling (GFS-40)
This would once
have been known as Koberner Weisenberg but everybody wants to simplify.
We added a bit of dosage to increase the wine’s body and set up
a piquant interplay; the wine is light but true, a discreet useful
gulper.
SOS: 1 (now to four years)
