Junger Riesling 2008
At the beginning of every harvest we set out to pick the Junger Riesling. For this wine we choose only
ripe and highly aromatic grapes which are not yet too sweet. The fermentation happens especially slow
and gente to conserve the delicate flavours of the Junger Riesling. Within only a few weeks a juvenile,
light and highly aromatic young wine emerges that is bottled and ready to drink in early November.
Therefore this wine is the first messenger of a new vintage and eagerly awaited by many wine
enthusiasts. Its natural fruitiness offers a glimpse of the upcoming wine qualities and additionally the
Junger Riesling is always a pleasure to drink on its own.
Tasting notes: The Junger Riesling 2008 offers a distinctive highly aromatic experience. It is
light and very fruity. The delicate sweetness and the frisky acidity lead to a harmonic and impressive
taste. This wine fits to almost every occasion and is escpecially good as a refreshing beverage in the
hot time of the year. It is also a very good companion for light dishes as well.
Drinking suggestions: This wine is meant to be drunk while its young and has its peak within the
first year following the harvest. Serve at 6-8° C (43-47 F).
