Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Kabinett - Nik Weis St. Urbans-Hof

The Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling Kabinett from Nik Weis St. Urbans-Hof is a pure, finesse-rich and light-footed white wine from the single vineyard Goldtröpfchen in Piesport in the German wine-growing region of Mosel.

A brilliant golden yellow with light golden highlights, this wine presents itself in the glass. The nose is skillfully taken by tropical fruits - especially passion fruit and mango - and spicy-smoky nuances (thanks to the blue Devonian slate). The brilliant fruit flavors are also reflected on the palate of this German white wine, accompanied by a delightfully natural residual sweetness. Despite the lush interplay of fruit richness and residual sweetness, the Nik Weis Piesporter Goldtröpfchen Riesling does not lose its prancing lightness. The refreshing, complex acid structure gives this white wine the final touch.
