Weingut Staffelter Hof, Riesling Dry "Magnus", Mosel, Germany 2021
{organic} 100% Riesling
TART PINEAPPLE & ZESTY LIME, CLEAN SLATE, ANGULAR ACIDITY
This is the driest offering among the “Wolf Wines” from Staffelter Hof. Teeming with tropical citrus and minerality, it’s enticing and vibrant yet accessible. It’s named after a helpful wolf who, a millennium ago, helped the estate’s ancestors when they found themselves with no beast of burden to help ferry stones around (for some reason). Appropriate for a wine that makes us want to howl at the moon!
Serving Suggestion: Smoked haddock & poached egg salad w/ watercress, spinach, lemon juice, & mustard. Medium-spicy Thai laarb lettuce wraps w/ tom yum soup on the side.
