Weingut Staffelter Hof, Riesling Eiswein "Krov Paradies", [375ml] Mosel, Germany 2016
{organic} 100% Riesling
TROPICALICIOUS ADVENTURE DOWN A RIVER OF WARM HONEY
Meet eiswein: a rare dessert wine made from grapes that froze on the vine, picked on that same night and pressed while frozen, yielding a few drops each of rich, concentrated juice. The resulting wine is nothing short of magical: unctuous, heady with tropical fruit and citrus peel, ripe peach, juicy pear, and fresh-cut honeycomb. All the summery sweetness is tempered by blindingly bright acidity, cleansing the palate and getting you ready for more. Brace yourself!
Serving Suggestion: Liverwurst spread thin on dark rye bread. Cinnamon- and nutmeg-spiced apple tart, topped w/ creme brulee, sipped slowly beside a fire.
