Mosel


Mosel refers to a wine region in western Germany, unfolding along the Moselle river and its tributaries. It is world renowned for rieslings grown on some of Europe's steepest slate slopes, where vines cling to extreme gradients. These wines pair vivid acidity with cutting minerality, in a delicate register ranging from dry to lusciously sweet, and are prized for their aromatic finesse, low alcohol and remarkable ability to age gracefully.
