Riesling | Grape variety



Riesling grows in all German wine-growing regions and occupies a vineyard area of almost 23,000 hectares. The grape variety represents German wine culture like no other. In Italy, too - preferably in South Tyrol and Piedmont - winemakers are increasingly trying their hand at cultivating and developing the grape variety. Sometimes with astonishing results and good success. It should be noted, however, that Italian Riesling due to the different climate and terroir - so very different from the well-known German Riesling. This is also because often (but not always) so-called Welschriesling is used - which has nothing in common with the 'white Riesling' from Germany.

The young and fruity Riesling is an ideal summer wine, aperitif and wine for any occasion. Strong and matured Rieslings are more suitable as a food companion. In this respect, Riesling goes particularly well with steamed sea and freshwater fish, boiled meat with light sauces and small domestic fowl. Riesling can also age very well and is therefore suitable for storage. - Gerardo [TS06/23]

"Although only about 40,000 of the world's 7.5 million hectares of vineyards are planted with Riesling, it is considered the world's highest-quality and noblest white wine variety - a superstar. Winemakers love it because it can produce a variety of styles that can hardly be surpassed. On the one hand, this is because Riesling responds excellently to the terroir, especially on slate and granite soils, and on the other hand, because it can offer wine lovers everything from delicate, playful dry wines to voluminously fruity wines to noble sweet wines such as Auslesen or even Trockenbeerenauslesen, especially since the latter are among the highest-quality and most exclusive of their kind in the world." - Falstaff

´Confini´ · Vino Bianco DOC 2018, Lis Neris, Friaul
Confini · Vino Bianco DOC 2018

Lis Neris, Friuli

The uniqueness of this cuvée is deeply rooted, its originality has been consolidated over time: Pinot Grigio is the backbone of this wine, to which it gives structure, fullness, softness and warmth. The Gewürztraminer is decisive for the aromatic quality of the olfactory sensations. Riesling is crucial for the right acid balance and complexity of the taste. Of the three grape varieties, the first two are harvested late and their fermentation and aging take place in wood. In short, three grape varieties so different for a wine so unique, resulting from the combination of overripe Mediterranean notes at liqueur level with alpine hints. - Gerardo [TS08/19]

"Bright, intense straw yellow. Very intense and complex nose of ripe peach, plus grapefruit zest, passion fruit and basil. On the palate rich pressure, exceedingly rich, beautiful play with ripe fruit and rich spices, very long finish." - Falstaff

"The first two varieties are aged for one year in tonneaus. The rest is also refined for a year in steel tanks on the lees. Pale yellow color. Aromatic notes of exotic fruits, honey and rose hips on the nose. It is warm on the palate, powerful but with good acidity. The finish is long with light almond notes." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)
