ÜRZIGER WÜRZGARTEN RIESLING SPÄTLESE : Ürziger Würzgarten produces wines of a completely unique nature. The wines showcase the typically juicy and precocious fruit of the “spice garden” vineyard, with a rich mouth feel, zippy acidity and lingering finish. Spätlese is produced with grapes that have a week or two extra hang time, but still without any botrytis. The extra hang time gives them higher ripeness and deeper flavors.
Viticulture: Sustainable, according to strict German environmental regulations
Average Yield: 50 hl/ha
Harvest Method: Selective hand picking
Vinification: Cool fermentation in a combination of stainless steel tanks and traditional Fuder barrels; fermentation stopped by chilling.
Recommended Serving Temperature: 8–10°C
Recommended Breathing Time: 15-30 mins
Editor Choice: Tropical and floral aromas with concentrated ripeness and spice on the palate. The mouthwatering finish is complex and is buoyed by the bright acidity. This is a wonderful wine for richer foods and cheeses. Its low alcohol content makes it especially good with spicy Asian / fusion cuisine.
Food Pairing: First Courses, Smoked Salmon; Scallops in cream sauces; Thai Dishes; Apple Pie, Strudel or Tarts.
