title: Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt 2008 Kaseler Nies'chen GG Trocken Riesling (Mosel)
description: The Kaseler Nies'chen's steep slope of blue slate faces the sunny south, accounting for this northerly site's ability to produce a dry Riesling that reached 12% alcohol in 2008. Although many Ruwer and Saar wines seem overly lean and sinewy when made in a dry style, this example verges on opulent, with exotic tropical fruit notes.
variety: Riesling
designation: Kaseler Nies'chen GG Trocken
