Kirchberg Riesling *** GG QW Rheinhessen

A dry Riesling with depth and structure: The Kirchberg from the Prinz Salm winery is a Grosses Gewächs from Rheinhessen that brings together density and finesse.

Prinz Salm bottles the wine as a Schlossabfüllung (estate bottling), and the Kirchberg site shapes its character. The winery works according to organic farming rules. As a VDP.Grosses Gewächs, the wine stands at the top of the association's quality pyramid.

On the nose, mirabelle plum, coconut, and rose petals appear. On the palate, the Riesling is smooth, with a creamy texture and ripe fruit, while the structure remains delicate. A mineral line carries it into a long, clear finish.

Pour it at 8 to 10 °C, not too cold, so that the aromas can unfold. It works as a soloist but also goes with pasta with cream sauce, pan-fried veal, or poultry in a light sauce.

The Winery

Weingut Prinz Salm

The German Weingut Prinz Salm is now managed in the 32nd generation and is located in Wallhausen in the Nahe region. It was probably founded around the year 1200. The owner of the winery is Michael Prinz zu Salm-Salm and calls 18 ha of vineyard area his own. The soils of the vineyards mainly consist of green slate.

In addition to the primarily grown grape variety Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Blanc de Noir, or even Pinot Noir grapes are also processed into wines at the Prinz Salm winery. Among the best sites are, for example, the Wallhäuser Johannisberg or the Binger Scharlachberg. Up to 120,000 bottles of wine are produced here annually.
