Weingut Stein Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett Feinherb 2022
Ulli and Pier Stein farm some of the oldest vines in the Mosel including one of the largest collections of ungrafted vines in the valley. Never for money, always for love.
Other notes
Consider this Stein’s “1er Cru” vineyard; though it’s a 1er Cru vineyard with 70 to 80+ year-old ungrafted vines and a serious terroir of mostly blue slate. This is the “other” Himmelreich and similar to its more famous sibling in Graach, the wines from this site always show a slimmer profile, a pronounced mineral fine-ness and lift. With only about 15 grams RS (just beyond dry), this is a wildly restrained and chiseled, old-school “Feinherb.”
