Year in and year out, this is simply one of the great Estate wines available, normally deliacately off-dry or even just barely dry-tasting. This quixotic profile (is it dry or just off-dry?) makes it a veritable Swiss army knife for pairings. The grapes are normally sourced primarily from Trabacher Taubenhaus, supplmemented by fruit from their other vineyards. They will never chaptalize, so this wine can range from around 9%-11% depending on vintage with usually between 10-20g of RS.
In 2024 this wine simply is delicious, and a perfect introduction to the vintage. There is a wonderful lightness and acidity that shows a classic side to the Mosel with just 9% alcohol with 19g of RS. As always this wine is more about structure, a braciling saline minerality, and garden fresh flowers and herbs.

| Mosel Fine Wines | The Riesling Weiser-Künstler, as it is referred to on the main label (the reference to the vintage is left for the back label), is a barely off-dry wine (with 11 g/l of residual sugar) made from Estate holdings mainly in the Trabener Taubenhaus und Schlossberg. It offers a nice and direct nose of herbs, greengage, white peach, almond, and rosemary. The wine is straight and focused on the palate and leaves a slightly tart yet animating feel of herbs and citrusy fruits in the nice finish. This dry-tasting Riesling is good and refreshing. | No 71 June 2024 |
