"VV" Riesling 2018

Saar Valley, Mosel

Download

Grown mostly on the Devonian slate soils that characterize the Saar, this feinherb (half-dry) Riesling shows intense aromatics of stone fruit, which are carried through by a subtle sweetness on the palate. As with all of Roman’s wines, indigenous yeasts are used for long, cold fermentations. It’s structure and bright acidity make it a true overachiever, and a worthy entry point to this ambitious lineup.

Winemaking

The VV is aged entirely in stainless steel to showcase it’s freshness.

Tasting Note

The “VV” is reminiscent of a perfectly ripe peach on a hot summer day. Stone fruit leaps from the glass, and the palate is driven by refreshing acidity that makes this exceedingly pleasing on its own, or with a wide range of cuisines.
