About this Wine

Fritz Haag Riesling Trocken is monovarietal Riesling dry white wine produced by Weingut Fritz Haag. It is classified by VDP as a Mosel-Saar-Ruwer.

Weingut Fritz Haag is located in the heart of the central valley of the Moselle River. The oldest documentation for the property dates back to 1605. The town where it is located was called Dusemond, but was renamed Brauneberg, "brown mountain" in reference to the colour of the slate in the area. The winery has 17 hectares of vineyards growing exclusively Riesling, and they produce it in all its facets, from dry to sweet. Its wines are elegant and sophisticated and have a great ageing potential.

The vineyards for Fritz Haag Riesling Trocken are in Braneberg, Burgen and Mühlheim, in the Middle Moselle. Their wines show a balance between delicacy, minerality, fruit and flowers.

Fritz Haag Riesling Trocken harvest is harvested manually and in the winery it ferments with native yeasts in large wooden barrels and in stainless steel tanks.

Fritz Haag Riesling Trockenes is a dry estate wine with delicate fruit and good acidity and minerality. A good wine to enjoy on a daily basis and as an introduction to the winery.

About German Wines

Germany is the world’s northernmost fine wine producing region and thus requires its vines to endure some of the coldest temperatures. Fortunately, the country’s star variety, Riesling, does well in cooler climates and can survive even these freezing winters.

Germany Riesling is classified by ripeness at harvest which is also used to indicate the wine’s level of residual sugar. Picking earlier means the grapes have less time to ripen and the corresponding wines will be on the drier side; while picking later gives the grapes the opportunity full ripen and produce a lusciously sweet Riesling. The classifications from driest to sweetest: Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and Eiswein (ice wine). While not as common to age white wines outside of Chardonnay, top tier German Rieslings can be aged for decades.

Other notable white grape varieties produced in Germany include Müller-Thurgau (a cross between Riesling and Madelaine Royale in the search for varieties that could withstand the extreme temperatures), Grauburguner (Pinot Gris) and Weissburguner (Pinot Blanc). The cooler German climate leads to earlier harvesting in general and gives German wines a distinctive character of higher acidity.

Historically red wine has always been harder to produce in the German climate. However, Pinot Noir grown in slightly warmer pockets of the country, has been highly successful in recent times. Going by the German name, Spätburgunder, German Pinot Noir can be elegant, structured and have vibrant acidity.
