Dr. Hermann Erdener Treppchen Riesling Kabinett 2004

Winery Notes
"Brilliant, super ripe Riesling from one of the steepest vineyards in Germany, that of Treppchen in the town of Erden. This gorgeous Riesling, redolent of white peach and the bright, tangy minerality of this vineyard’s Devon blue slate is as classic a rendition of Mosel Riesling as can be found. Serve it with grilled or sautéed fin fish or with a variety of ethnic cuisines."

"Dr. Hermann Winery, the Riesling-Estate, is managed by the father and son team of Rudi and Christian Hermann. Their philosophy is that quality starts in the vineyard with restrained pruning, hand harvesting, natural and careful cultivation of vineyard soil. The result is beautiful, elegant wines from some of the most famous vineyard sites in the world. The Hermann's specialize in Riesling grown on steep rock slopes of the famous vineyards of the Erdener Prälat, Erdener Treppchen, and the Ürziger Würzgarten. All of their vineyards grow exclusively on old vines, ungrafted Riesling vines which deliver beautiful, complex Riesling wines."
