Vinification of Klüsserather Riesling from Weingut Kirsten-Liebieg

The grapes for Klüsserather Riesling - Weingut Kirsten-Liebieg grow on the steep slopes along the Moselle, where slate soil dominates. This mineral-rich terroir offers the vines ideal conditions and brings out the pronounced minerality in the wine. The climatic conditions are characterized by cool nights and warm days, which contribute to slow ripening and intensify the diversity of aromas.

The harvest time is carefully chosen to find the perfect balance between fruit and acidity. Harvesting is done exclusively by hand in order to process the grapes gently and guarantee quality.

Vinification takes place traditionally in stainless steel tanks, which preserve freshness and fruitiness. Fermentation proceeds slowly at controlled temperatures to fully develop the bouquet. After fermentation, the wine matures on the fine lees, which gives body and supports the creaminess. Aging in wooden casks is deliberately avoided in order to preserve the pure, fruity character.

The result is an elegant Riesling that impressively reflects the uniqueness of the site and the skill of the winemaker.
