Vom Schiefer is a sleek, sophisticated Riesling whith a delicate minerality born of the internal dance between its vineyards of origin. A spectrum of fruit aromas are on display here, from papaya to currant.
Ansgar Clusserath Description
The dry Riesling “Vom Schiefer” (literally, from slate) provides an introduction to the world of steep-site Rieslings from the Middle Mosel. The grapes for this wine are sourced from three individual sites: 1) Trittenheimer Altärchen, on the left bank of the Mosel, with weathered, shale-based soils, brings forth Rieslings with aromas of citrus, grapefruit and orange peel; 2) Neumagener Rosengärtchen, located north of Trittenheim, with loamy, weathered, shale-based soils; and 3) Mülheimer Sonnenlay, situated in a side valley of the Mosel, is known for its filigree, citrus, light mineral aromas. This cuvée of three sites results in an appealing wine that is light, with a filigree slate notes. This is accompanied by fruit aromas of green apple, peach, and grapefruit.
James Suckling: 92 Points
I love the nutty apple aromas of this juicy and crisp dry Mosel riesling. There’s also a touch of summer meadow character that helps round out the bright, zesty acidity on the light- to medium-bodied palate. Just 11% alcohol. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
