Tasting Notes

Hofberg

2016 - Hofberg Riesling GG
The 2016 comes with a nose of red slate minerality, spicy, great exotic fruit notes with lots of mango and pineapple. On the palate creamy, juicy and dense, well integrated, vibrant acidity, spicy minerality, long finish with grapefruit and citrus notes.

2011 - Hofberg Riesling GG
The 2011 is finer in the nose, more elegant, still spicy, but also with some honey, more herbal. On the palate spicy and with great acidity again. But because of the aging it finishes way smoother, milder.

Apotheke

2018 - Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling Spätlese
A perfect Moselle summer Spätlese. Perfect slate minerality, brilliant acidity that balances the fruit basket of all exotics you can imagine... Simply delicious.

2016 - Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling GG
Spicy mineralic nose, quite herbal, peach and apricots, still a bit closed, guess it needs some more time to fully unfold its potential. On the palate very spicy from the grey slate, quite cool from the blue slate, crisp acidity, herbal, finishes with great citrus and lemon peel flavors. A great GG that will unfold its full potential most probably after one or two years!

2016 - Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling Spätlese
Nice and spicy slate minerality in the nose with a deep fruit basket of yellow apples, pear, ripe peach, floral notes, hints of herbs and mild pepper. On the palate smooth honey, beautiful peach and pear notes, slight raspberry, all based on a nice minerality body. Such a fantastic #moselle Spätlese Riesling!

2016 - Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling Auslese
The nose is sweet and fresh at the same time, lots of ripe peach, some honey, some herbs. On the palate very nice slate minerality that plays with a fresh acidity and a broad ripe fruit basket. Finishes with a great spice-sweetness mix that is wrapped with candied citrus notes. If you love Moselle Auslese (like we do), you will love it.

2017 - Trittenheimer Riesling Kabinett
Winery #gransfassian presented a great #2017 collection. We have opened a nice under 15 Euro example. The #trittenheimer #riesling #kabinett comes with a beautiful balance of power and freshness. Great exotic fruit notes with pineapple, passion fruits and mango, but also great minerality from blue and grey slate that gives it freshness and spiciness. Perfect for a long summer evening!
