Katharina Wechsler Riesling Rheinhessen Morstein 2022 is a dry white wine made from 100% Riesling grapes, originating from the renowned Morstein vineyard in the Rheinhessen region of Germany. This vineyard is celebrated for its limestone-rich soil, which contributes to the wine's pronounced minerality and complexity.
The wine features ripe aromas of European stone fruits, such as juicy August apples and peaches, characteristic of Rheinhessen Rieslings. On the palate, it offers a dense and pure fruitiness with notes of green pear and summer apple, complemented by a touch of citrus freshness.
This combination imparts a youthful vibrancy and juiciness. Thanks to the limestone-rich soil of the Morstein vineyard, the wine exhibits significant minerality, adding depth and complexity. Its firm acidity provides freshness and ensures longevity.
