The craftsmanship of Delheim

The Riesling grapes were planted in 1984 in the Office Riesling vineyard, a special, demarcated vineyard on the northeastern slope of the Simonsberg mountain. Excellent for Riesling grapes! Because the vines are already very old, Delheim Edelspatz Noble Late Harvest Riesling develops a remarkably intense flavor. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are crushed and cold fermented. Delheim Edelspatz Noble Late Harvest Riesling then matures on its own yeast for several months, adding even more depth to this dessert wine. Because the grapes come from a select vineyard, yields are scarce, but every sip is more than worth it!
