The Land
The Julian Haart 1,000L Riesling 2023 hails from the prestigious Goldtröpfchen vineyard, a Grand Cru site in the heart of the Mosel Valley. Known for its steep, slate-covered slopes that bask in optimal sun exposure, this vineyard produces wines of remarkable complexity and character. The vines, now 25 years old, are deeply rooted in the mineral-rich soils, imparting a distinct minerality to the wine. The unique microclimate of warm days and cool nights ensures a brisk, vibrant acidity, allowing the Riesling grapes to ripen slowly and fully develop their aromatic potential.
The Wine
Legally classified as Trocken (denotes dryness, a term legally reserved for wines that possess no more than 9 grams of residual sugar per liter). This Riesling showcases a dry style with an alcohol content of around 11.5%. The wine takes its name from the “1,000L” Fuder barrel that was exclusively selected and purchased for this bottling. Known for its tension and precision, this wine is characterized by high-toned citrus notes, including lemon zest and lime, accompanied by nuances of green apple and white peach. The palate is brisk and refreshing, with a taut structure and a core of pronounced minerality. Layers of slate and a subtle salinity add depth and complexity, leading to a long, crisp finish that is both mouthwatering and memorable.
