A Unique Vintage with a Beautiful Balance of Sweetness and Acidity
The Weingut Mönchhof Salve Mosel Riesling Feinherb Off-Dry 2023 is a distinctive Riesling that captures the essence of the Mosel Valley. This 2023 vintage brings together the classic characteristics of Riesling with a delicate balance of sweetness and zesty acidity, making it an ideal choice for any wine lover seeking complexity and refreshment.
Tasting Notes:
A bright, refreshing wine with vibrant redcurrant and blood orange notes that burst through the glass. The delicate sweetness is perfectly balanced with the crisp acidity, resulting in a wine that is lively yet smooth. As it lingers on the palate, the wine develops a slightly bitter-sweet finish that adds depth and intrigue, leaving you with a clean and crisp aftertaste.
The 2023 Vintage – A Challenging Yet Diverse Year
The 2023 vintage presented its challenges, but the resulting wines, including this one, show great character. The year started with slow growth due to cooler weather, which shifted quickly in May with warmer temperatures. The dry weather of July gave way to significant rainfall in August, causing rapid growth of the grapes. While the rains led to increased disease pressure, the careful management of the vineyard ensured that a successful harvest was achieved. The dry and warm weather from late September allowed the grapes to reach their optimal ripeness, culminating in a harvest that brought out the best qualities of the Riesling grape.

| Winery | The 40 to 50-year-old vines are grown on original European rootstocks. 70% of the grapes come from the staircase-steep amphitheatre-shaped vineyards of Urziger Wurzgarten. The volcanic rhyolitic soils are layered with red slate. Due to the southern exposure and the protective rocks, Ürziger Wurzgarten is one of the warmer microclimates, producing opulent, aromatic, spicy Riesling with a typical zesty finish. 30% of the fruit comes from Erdener Treppchen, located one kilometre downstream, where the terroir, microclimate, and resulting wines are entirely different. Due to its western orientation, the slightly lesser gradient, and the lack of slate cliffs, Erdener Treppchen is cooler, which, combined with the blue slate soil, produces more delicate wines with racy acidity. The vines are VSP trained, allowing easy canopy management on the steep gradient. Summer leaf removal provides good air circulation and reduces photosynthesis, resulting in a later harvest, producing berries with less sugar, less alcohol, and good aromatic maturity. Hand harvested. |
