The Haart Goldtröpfchen Riesling Trocken GG is a Grand Cru sourced from carefully sorted healthy grapes growing in the Goldtröpfchen vineyards, the south-facing steep slope of grey slate soil above the village of Piesport, the absolute top spot where only the very best vines enjoy the privilege of growing there. Late hand-picked grapes.
Tasting Notes: Excellent dry Mosel riesling with good ripeness and crisp acidity. Complex and intense, it displays nectarine flavours combined with a beautifully mineral accent and ripe fruit. Round and elegant on the palate with a lovely silky texture.
Notes: Excellent for cellaring and enjoyed over 15 to 25 years without problem.
THE WINERY
The Haart family prides itself on being one of the oldest local winemaking families in this part of the Mosel. Weingut Reinhold Haart is without doubt a privileged place by the Mosel’s riverbank, in the village of Piesport, in the very heart of the Mosel, that it has been producing wines since 1337 from grapes grown exclusively in their own estate in one of the region’s best vineyards. Today their 8 ha of vineyards from a diversity of sites produce a wide range of elegant and fine Riesling wines from the ripe fruit and its excellent terroir. Vineyards climbing uphill in steep sites overlooking the river, exposed to the sunlight and growing on slate-rich soils. Yields are kept low, and the fermentation takes place in cool with natural yeasts, either in stainless steel or in the traditional oak barrels. Their wines are natural fruit sweetness with a great ageing potential.
Piesport is a small town on a sharp bend in the Mosel River in the Mosel wine district of Germany. The town of Piesport contains the ideal sites for wine growing: a steep amphitheatre facing south. The name of the slopes flanking the village, the single vineyard site Goldtröpfchen (little drop of gold), is a splendid south-facing site protected from winds by its location on a loop in the river. The soil is quite complex, composed of quartz with stony clay and slate rich in iron oxide. It is famous for gently honeyed wines with great fragrance and very mineral in character; here, half the wines are classified as great growth and the other half as first growth. The vast plantation across the river is known as Piesporter Treppchen.
