Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer - Weingut Hörner

The light-footed Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer from Weingut Hörner flows into the glass with a brilliant light yellow. The bouquet of this white wine from the Palatinate enchants with aromas of passion fruit, lychee and rose. Following the aromatics further, physalis emerges as well.

The Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer can rightly be described as particularly fruit-driven and velvety, as it has been vinified with a pleasantly sweet flavor profile. Light-footed and multi-layered, this velvety white wine presents itself on the palate. Thanks to its pronounced fruit acidity, the Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer appears exceptionally fresh and lively on the palate. The finish of this white wine from the winegrowing region of the Palatinate, more precisely from Hochstadt, ultimately convinces with a good aftertaste. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes from the soils dominated by loess and clay.

Vinification of Weingut Hörner Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer

The basis for the first-class and wonderfully elegant Stier Riesling Gewürztraminer Cuvée from Weingut Hörner is Gewürztraminer and Riesling grapes. In the Palatinate, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and loess soils. The berries for this white wine from Germany are harvested particularly quickly and at the coolest possible time of day once they have reached perfect ripeness, in order to preserve their freshness. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by several months of aging on the fine lees before the wine is finally bottled.
