Vereinigte Hospitien
Hospitien Kabinett Trocken Riesling
Mosel, Germany
Ah, the Vereinigte Hospitien Hospitien Kabinett Trocken Riesling—an
effervescent delight from the famed Mosel region of Germany, where the
sun seems to cast its benevolent glow upon steep vineyards clinging to
the riverbanks. This charming Riesling enchants with its crisp
minerality and vibrancy, evoking notes of green apple, zesty lime, and a
whisper of delightful floral undertones.
The producer, Vereinigte Hospitien, is steeped in history, having been
established in 1793, making it a veritable grandparent in the world of
winemaking. Fun fact: they’ve fostered various wine styles that impress
both the gaunt-faced sage and the jolly novice alike.
Riesling is an intriguing character—quite the flirt—known for its
ability to reflect its terroir brilliantly. It fits well with dishes
like grilled prawns, creamy pasta, or spicy Asian fare, as its acidity
and slight sweetness can dance beautifully around these flavors like a
waltzing couple at a summer's ball.
Professionally admired, it garnered a rating of 91 from Wine Enthusiast.
Ah, a fine vintage indeed—perhaps one to keep away from the matronly
aunt who has a habit of raiding your cellar!

Faintest diesel on the nose. Surprisingly sweet and thick almost like a dessert wine.
