How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine
How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine Eiswein is a sweet dessert wine that originated in Germany. This "late harvest" wine is traditionally pressed from grapes that are harvested after they freeze on the vine. "Eiswein" literally means "ice wine," and is called so on some labels. If you want to buy eiswein, know the country and the method that produced the bottle to find the best available "ice wine" for your budget. Does this Spark an idea? Instructions 1. o 1 Locate a local wine store or look on line for wine sellers who carry eiswein. o 2 Look for a bottle that fits your price range. German and Austrian Eisweins, which follow established methods of harvest and production, are the European gold standard. However, many less expensive, but still excellent, ice wines come from Austria, New Zealand, Slovenia, Canada and the United States. Not all producers let grapes freeze naturally before harvesting them at night. This time-honored and labor-intensive method of production, as well as the loss of all but a few drops of juice, explains the higher price of traditionally produced ice wine. Some vintners pick the grapes and then artificially freeze them before pressing. Manage Cellar, Share Tasting Notes Free, powerful, and easy to use! o 3 Pick a colorful and fragrant bouquet. Eiswein is distinguished by the contrast between its fragrant sweetness and acidity. A great eiswein is both rich and fresh. Young eisweins have tropical fruit, peach or berry overtones. Older eisweins suggest caramel or honey. Colors can range from white to rose.

SYBILLE KUNTZ Weingut 2019 Mosel-Riesling Kabinett Trocken
SYBILLE KUNTZ Weingut Hugh Johnson Pocket Wine Book 2020: “Progressive individual organic estate at Lieser especially Niederberg-Helden vineyards. Intense wines, one of each ripeness category, intended for gastronomy, listed in many top restaurants.” 2019 Mosel-Riesling Kabinett trocken Alcohol 13,0 Vol%, Residual sugar 6,6 g/l, Acidity 7,3 g/l. General: Kabinett is the basic wine in the superior quality wine category (Qualitätswein mit Prädikat) defined by the German Wine Law. It is gained mainly from old vines farmed according to biodynamic principles in the Pauls Valley, a side valley formed by the River Mosel some thirty-five thousand years ago. Today it is part of the single vineyard site Lieser Schlossberg. The heat is collected here like in a parabolic mirror. The soil is 100% blue devonian shale and adds particular mineral notes into the wines. We cultivate a spontaneous cover crop to grow in the rows which keeps useful and harmful creatures in a natural balance. Low yield is assured through the pruning of the vines to 8–10 buds/vine. At the end of June, shortly after blossom, manual shoot thinning is done as well as removal of leaves and secondary shoots in the grape zone. This results in light-weight, small-berried grapes perfectly exposed to the sunrays. Total yield amounts to 40 hl/ha, which is about a bottle of Riesling per vine. What is important for the timing of the harvest is to reach physiological ripeness in mid-October, with sugar readings of around 100° Oechsle (Specific gravity 100° = 1,100 kg/l or 24,0° Brix).

Wine Grape Variety Trial for Maritime Western Washington 2000-2008
Summary of Results: Wine Grape Variety Trial for Maritime Western Washington 2000-2008 Wine Grape Cultivar Trials 2000-2008 in the Cool Maritime Climate of Western WA Gary Moulton, Carol Miles, Jacqueline King, and Charla Echlin WSU Mount Vernon NWREC 16650 State Route 536, Mount Vernon, WA 98273 Tel. 360-848-6150 Email [email protected] http://extension.wsu.edu/maritimefruit/Pages/default.aspx Wines produced from grapes grown in cool climate regions have generally low alcohol content, low viscosity, and high fruit aromas and flavor (Casteel, 1992; Jackson and Schuster, 1977; Zoecklein, 1998). Certain varietals from Germany, Austria Russia, Hungary, and Armenia, as well as some common French varieties such as Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris can produce excellent fruity wines in western Washington. Selection of the right clone is important and knowing the heat units of your site will greatly aid in the selection of which varieties to grow. The cool maritime region of western Washington is on the very low end of the spectrum with respect to the number of growing degree days (GDD) needed for ripening the more common wine grape cultivars. Although the Puget Sound region has a long growing season in terms of frost free days, mesoclimates within the area range from below 1200 GDD to 2200 GDD. The Washington State University Mount Vernon Northwestern Washington Research and Extension Center (WSU Mount Vernon NWREC) research site is located at 12 feet above sea level in the Skagit Valley floodplain, 3 miles from the Puget Sound. Since 2002, annual GDD averaged 1693; in 2003 there was a spike in GDD of 1965.

Riesling Kabinett Trocken
RHEINGAU VDP.GUTSWEIN RIESLING KABINETT TROCKEN Weingut Robert Weil, founded 1875, is run today by Wilhelm Weil, the fourth generation of the founding family. The founder of the estate, Dr. Robert Weil, purchased his first vineyards on the Kiedricher Berg in 1867, at a time when he was still a German professor at the Sorbonne in Paris. With the approach of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71, he was forced to leave France. He settled in Wiesbaden, where he worked as a journalist, and Kiedrich, where he expanded his vineyard holdings by acquiring the best sites on the Kiedricher Berg. Thanks to his unwavering commitment to quality-oriented viticulture, his foresight, and his willingness to invest in the estate, it developed quickly and its wines were soon celebrated in international circles. Spätlese and Auslese wines from Weingut Robert Weil graced the table of many European imperial and royal houses as the white counterparts of the Bordeaux reds. Today, the estate’s 90 ha (222 acres) of vineyards are planted 100% with Riesling. Throughout its history the estate has always focused on the Riesling grape and adhered to strict, quality-ori- ented practices in the vineyard – such as stringent pruning to control yields and selective harvesting by hand – and in the cellar, where the wines are vinified as gently as possible. This unwavering and uncompromising quality management is central to Weingut Robert Weil’s unbroken streak of producing wines at every Prädikat classification, up to and including Trockenbeerenauslese, for every vintage since 1989. The estate’s dedication to Riesling since 1875 has led numerous observers of the international wine world to regard Weingut Robert Weil, with its “château character”, as a worldwide symbol of German Riesling culture.

Welsh Regional Wine - Protected Geographical Indication (Pgi)
Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs December 2011 WELSH REGIONAL WINE - PROTECTED GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATION (PGI) PROTECTED NAME: WELSH REGIONAL DEMARCATION: WALES PART 1: STILL WINE Welsh Regional Wine is made from grapes grown close to the limit for viticulture. All vineyards are positioned at above 49.9 degrees north leading to long daylight hours in the growing season. The climate is temperate with few summer days above 30°C. The diurnal temperature range is high. These wines are made from a wide range of grape varieties including hybrids and lesser known varieties, many of which are highly aromatic. These wines are typified by high acidity for the styles of wine produced. The northerly latitude of the vineyards in this PGI creates the long growing season and long daylight hours that are key to the development of strong aromatic flavours. It permits the use of a broad range of grape varieties whilst maintaining the fundamental characteristics that arise from Wales‟s extreme latitude. The moderate temperatures lead to crisp acidity. Organoleptic characteristics Visual appearance: clear and bright liquid; tartrate crystals and sedimentary deposits may occur provided it is possible to decant off the wine as a clear and bright liquid Odour & taste: clean, with enhanced aromatics and refreshing acidity appropriate to the style of wine SPECIFICATION MINIMUM NATURAL, ACTUAL AND TOTAL ALCOHOLIC STRENGTHS AND ENRICHMENT Natural Alcoholic Strength: The minimum natural alcoholic strength, i.e. before enrichment, shall not be less than 6.0% volume. Enrichment: The process of enrichment (in accordance with the procedures laid down in Annex XVa, points A and B, Reg.
