Hartenberg Riesling Noble Late Harvest 2020

A bouquet of intense honey with crisp lemon and aromatic tropical fruit. Medium-bodied on the palate with distinctive candied orange peel and caramelised citrus. The vibrant acidity allows for a rich yet elegant mouth feel . Oodles of flavour – a honeyed , barley sugar and yellow tropical fruit melange of character. The wine finishes with a linear minerality and fresh zippy acidity.

Spicy foods, Strong decadent cheeses & desserts or served sans food as dessert itself.

about the harvest: The grapes were hand-picked at daybreak. Picking was done berry by berry, carefully, only selecting berries with Botrytis fungus.
in the cellar : The grapes were gently crushed, de-stemmed and underwent 12 hours of skin contact at low temperatures and occasional stirring. Pressing followed and entailed very slow and gentle fractional pressing. The juice was fermented using a yeast selected in Austria. Fermentation was stopped through chilling, to gain the required sugar / acid balance. The wine was stabilised & filtered before bottling. The wine was bottle matured for two years prior to release.
