Haart Mosel Riesling QBA

• Grape: Riesling
• Dry
• Region: Mosel Valley, Germany
• Drink or hold
• Palate: Astonishingly ripe peachy aromas for this humble level. Then a wonderful interplay of juicy stone fruit and racy acidity on the medium-bodied palate. Very straight and bright at the long, stony finish.
• "There is general consensus in the informed wine world that the former star pupil of Klaus Peter Keller is one of the greatest talents of the German wine industry in the last 20 years."

About the winemaker

So much praise has been heaped upon the young Julian Haart in recent vintages that it's hard to decide which sound-bites to pick out. In 2017, along with a slew of 100 point reviews for his three Auslese, Julian was awarded the highest rated Kabinett of the vintage by John Gilman. This was repeated in 2018 when Jean Fisch and David Rayer of Mosel Fine Wines stated that Julian's Ohligsberg Alte Reben "is one of the finest Kabinett we have ever tasted" and named his Goldtröpfchen Spatlese as the single best Spatlese of the vintage. With last year's 2019 release, his Ohligsberg Kabinett Alte Reben received the highest score for any Kabinett from the vintage from Stuart Pigott. Finally, just a few weeks ago, Julian's 2020 Ohligsberg Kabinett Alte Reben was awarded the first ever 100 point score for a Kabinett from any publication that we are aware of. These consistently thrilling wines are quite remarkable when you consider the estate was only established in 2010!
