Bollig-Lehnert Piesporter Goldtroopfchen Riesling Spatlese

Piesporter - Goldtröpfchen is one of the best-known individual vineyards (Einzellagen) in the Mosel region of Germany. This vineyard consists of steep, slatey southern-facing slopes arranged in a dramatic amphitheater-like shape for ideal exposure and aspect with the river reflecting much-desired sun directly to the vines. The excellent Rieslings are typically sun-warmed and ripe, with pronounced slate minerality and balancing acidity. Ripe, full of tropical fruit flavors of pineapple, mango, and guava, with pastry accents. Offers a bright finish of kiwifruit and lime, showing a touch of chamomile and cream. A succulent Riesling.A perfect match for strong Indian and Asian spiced dishes. Also fantastic with a spiced duck leg, dishes with acidic sauces, roasted vegetables, and soft cheeses.
