Terra Montosa Riesling - Georg Breuer

The light-footed Terra Montosa Riesling from the house of Georg Breuer glides into the glass with a brilliant light yellow color. If you give it some air in the wine glass by swirling, this white wine is characterized by a wonderful lightness that makes it dance lively in the glass. To the nose, this Georg Breuer white wine reveals all manner of grapefruit, nashi pear, pomelo, pink grapefruit and lemons. As if that wasn't already impressive, other aromas like forest floor and sun-warmed rock join in.

The Georg Breuer Terra Montosa Riesling presents itself to the wine lover wonderfully dry. This white wine never appears coarse or meager, but round and smooth. On the palate, the texture of this light-footed white wine is wonderfully crisp. Due to its concise fruit acidity, the Terra Montosa Riesling is fantastically fresh and lively on the palate. In the finish, this well storable white wine from the wine-growing region of the Rheingau finally inspires with good length. Again, hints of grapefruit and pear appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes of the soils dominated by clay and slate are added.

Vinification of the Terra Montosa Riesling by Georg Breuer

This elegant white wine from Germany is vinified from the Riesling grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in the Rheingau region. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into soils of clay and slate. What is unusual about the creation of this white wine by Georg Breuer is the fact that the grapes grow in the Rheingau on stone terraces. However, this traditional way of vineyard cultivation is very costly and time-consuming and therefore rarely found anymore. Terra Montosa Riesling is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this German wine breathes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of Old World wines. After the hand harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. This is followed by fermentation in controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by maturation.
