Staffelter Hof Magnus Riesling 2022
Staffelter Hof Magnus Riesling 2022 is a distinguished white wine from the Mosel region in Germany, produced by the historic Staffelter Hof estate, which has been operating as a winery since 862 AD. This wine is crafted from 100% Riesling grapes, reflecting the estate's commitment to traditional winemaking practices.
The 2022 vintage was produced in a low-intervention manner, aiming to showcase a classic Mosel Riesling profile. The wine was fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged on its lees for several months to enhance texture and complexity.
Appearance: Brilliant very pale straw colour with a subtle tinge of green to the edges and a watery hue.
Aroma: Alluring aromas of lime, red apple, and honeysuckle, followed by slatey mineral notes.
Taste: Zippy lime and red apple flavours overlay a delicate honeysuckle and slatey mineral backdrop. The wine displays a light, dry, and crisp profile with a vibrant acidity that enlivens the palate. The fruit is pure and focused, with a subtle salinity adding complexity. The lees ageing imparts a slight creaminess, balancing the zesty citrus and green apple notes.
Finish: Finishes dry with a long aftertaste of lime, red apple, and slatey mineral characters. The crisp acidity and mineral undertones leave a refreshing and clean impression, inviting another sip.
Food Pairing: This Riesling pairs beautifully with grilled bass with tomato tapenade, Portuguese cod (Bacalao), and crab-stuffed potato skins, where its vibrant acidity and mineral notes complement the richness and flavours of these dishes.
