Müller-Catoir Gimmeldingen Riesling Kabinett 2020

Alcohol: 9.5%

Grape(s): Riesling

Localization: Pfalz, Germany

Tasting Notes: After red vineyard peach and oranges balsamic notes such as caramel and flower honey follow. You won't get enough of smelling this wine. Enchanting sweetness, the wine flows through your throat a little oily. We think of the Provence and lavender cookies. 

Notes: Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks.

Food Pairing: Try it with pear tart with cream topping. Hearty with farmhouse bread and ripe cheese. When you come home frozen to the marrow this Riesling will warm your soul!

The Domain: Family-owned since 1774, Müller-Catoir is now owned by Philipp David Catoir, the 9thgeneration.  Philipp David works alongside Martin Franzen, who is responsible for both vineyards and cellar. Martin originally comes from the Mosel, bringing experience as head of operations at Schlossgut Diel in the Nahe and at Gut Nagelsforst in Baden. Franzen joined the winery in 2002, taking over from legendary winemaker Hans-Günther Schwarz, who made Catoir a household name in Germany and abroad. Hans-Günther had a reputation as a great and friendly mentor to two generations of some of the best winemakers in Germany, Austria, and Alsace.  Martin has continued this tradition and has become one of the most respected winemakers in Germany.
