Tasting - Moselland Ars Vitis Riesling

Variety: 100% riesling

Description: Moselland Mosel Saar Ruwer Ars Vitis Riesling is a delightful white wine with a touch of sweetness and a crisp, refreshing taste. With vibrant notes of citrus fruits and floral undertones, this German Riesling is perfect for any occasion. Enjoy it on its own or pair it with poultry or seafood dishes for an exquisite taste experience.

Shop/Wine Critic/Winery Review: "The Mosel is the home of riesling that dates back 2000 years. Steep slopes, slate soils and relatively cool temperatures provide the perfect medium to grow riesling grapes. This entry-level look at riesling is medium sweet at 37 grams per litre of residual sugar, yet it presents elegant and fresh with crisp-like fruit flavours that help freshen the wine on the palate. Clean fruity and easy to drink, this would be perfect with spicy curries. Fair value. (Anthony Gismondi)." - 86/100, Gismondi on Wine

Wine Folly: I tasted the common flavors of green apple and lime usually found in Rieslings. It was a sweeter Riesling with very little flavors of beeswax and petroleum. (pg. 158)

My Review: The Riesling had a subtly sweet smell and tasted of pear and apple fruit flavors with an overall sweetness. It also had hints of citrus flavors which were hard to place. It had a primarily dry mouthfeel initially and upon swallowing.
