Description
Incredibly concentrated with a steely framework. From the famed Scharzhofberg vineyard, this bright and vibrant Riesling is delicious now and will continue to be so for years to come! Eberhard von Kunow is proprietor of the estate at Oberemmel that has been in the same family for six generations. He and his wife Hildegard reside in the old manor house which many visitors liken to an old castle. The manor house, completed in the 12th century, was initially an added retreat for the famous wine-monastery of St. Maximin in Trier. Over the years many things have changed above the foundation, but the cellar is today just as it was 800 years ago. The von Kunows, even though respectful of tradition, use the latest methods in their vineyards and in marketing their wines. As a cellar master Eberhard, who is also the auctioneer for the wine auctions at Trier and Bernkastel, uses the old tried and true methods. All wine is fermented and matured in 100% German oak until bottled.
