Gindorf Zellerberg Riesling Auslese 2018
Member Price €32.45
This is a late-harvest sweet wine, only made in the best years.
It’s from Laura’s Zellerberg vineyard in the Mosel, which is set on steep grey slate - which gives a lovely minerality to the wine.
2018 was one of those perfect years, when they got just the right balance of sun and rain to produce grapes with the perfect amount of sugar in them to produce an Auslese.
And Laura’s still waiting for that perfect year to strike again - she hasn’t made this wine since then!
This would go wonderfully well with any cheese course, or a dessert with fruit in it.
