Abtei Himmerod Riesling Spätlese is an elegant, off-dry white wine from the Mosel , one of Germany 's most celebrated wine regions. Grown on steep, slate-rich vineyards along the Mosel River and crafted from 100% Riesling , it is a wine of real finesse, combining vibrant acidity, delicate fruit, and a distinctive mineral character that is unmistakably Mosel. Why You'll Love It Mosel Riesling is one of the wine world's great benchmarks, and Abtei Himmerod is a historic estate that captures its essence beautifully. The combination of steep slate slopes, a cool continental climate, and meticulous vineyard management produces grapes of exceptional quality and aromatic complexity. Spätlese, meaning late harvest, indicates grapes picked at optimal ripeness for added depth and natural sweetness, balanced by the region's signature crisp acidity. This is Riesling at its most expressive and rewarding. Vineyard & Production Grapes are hand-harvested from steep slate vineyards along the Mosel River, where the dark slate soils absorb heat during the day and release it at night, helping the grapes ripen slowly and develop intense aromatic complexity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at controlled temperatures to preserve purity and freshness, before a brief period on fine lees adds subtle texture and depth prior to bottling. Tasting Notes Pale straw with green highlights. The nose is fresh and aromatic, with citrus peel, green apple, white flowers, and a characteristic slate minerality. On the palate, off-dry and beautifully balanced, with flavours of apricot and peach supported by crisp, refreshing acidity and a long, clean, mineral finish. Serve well chilled at 8 to 10 degrees. Perfect Pairings A wonderfully versatile food wine. Pairs beautifully with seafood, sushi, lightly spiced Asian cuisine, roast poultry, and fresh goat's cheese. Also an excellent match for Thai green curry, Vietnamese spring rolls, or a simple smoked trout salad. The Blend 100% Riesling
