TASTING NOTES
The 2024 Brauneberger Riesling Trocken by Günther Steinmetz is a dry white wine from one of the Mosel’s most celebrated terroirs, the Brauneberger Mandelgraben. Made from hand-selected grapes fermented with native yeasts, this Riesling is distinguished by its refined elegance and freshness. In appearance, it shows a pale straw yellow colour with greenish reflections that reflect its youthful vitality. On the nose, it opens with intense notes of yellow stone fruits such as peach, nectarine, and mirabelle plum, accompanied by delicate spicy hints of aromatic herbs like lemon balm and sage. On the palate, the wine is agile, with well-integrated acidity and a slight residual sugar that adds softness and pleasantness, characteristic of a Mosel "trocken" style—that is, dry yet balanced. The finish is mineral-driven, long, and clean, with persistence that invites another sip. Vinification takes place in stainless steel, preserving the freshness and typical character of the terroir. Günther Steinmetz’s production respects nature, employing careful and sustainable viticulture alongside spontaneous fermentation to enhance the vineyard’s unique personality. The 2024 Brauneberger Riesling Trocken pairs perfectly with a wide range of dishes, from seafood and fish to vegetable-based dishes and light meats. It is also ideal as an aperitif wine for convivial gatherings. In summary, this Riesling is an excellent expression of the Mosel, combining freshness, aromatic complexity, and finesse in a wine that blends tradition with modernity. It is well suited for those seeking a lively, balanced, and authentic white wine. Günther Steinmetz is renowned for his innovative approach to viticulture, balancing tradition with modern techniques, and his winery is committed to sustainable practices that support the health of the local ecosystem.
