Riesling trocken - Balthasar Ress

The organically produced Riesling from Balthasar Ress enters the glass with a brilliant light yellow color. This single varietal German wine flatters the glass with wonderfully expressive notes of quince, pear, apricot and nashi pear. It is joined by hints of cinnamon, gingerbread spice and cocoa bean.

The Balthasar Ress Riesling delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with 6.7 grams of residual sugar. As one might naturally expect from a wine in the upper price range, this German wine naturally enraptures with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need residual sugar. Light-footed and multi-layered, this light white wine presents itself on the palate. Due to its concise fruit acidity, the Riesling is wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate. The final of this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of the Rheingau, more precisely from Hattenheim, finally captivates with good reverberation.

Vinification of the Riesling from Balthasar Ress

This white wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, and that is Riesling. For this wonderfully elegant varietal wine from Balthasar Ress, only first-class grapes were used. After the grape harvest, the grapes reach the winery by the fastest route. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months on the fine lees before the wine is finally bottled. After the wine is finished, the Riesling is carefully harmonized.
