The Grand Cru Hofberg is one of the greatest Mosel vineyards. In 1868 the vineyards of this hill were classified by the Prussians as an extraordinary place to make great Rieslings. The main part of the vineyards are situated on the Mosel river, but not the Hofberg. It`s a lovely quiet side-valley on the Dhron river with weathered Devonian slate in mixture with quartzite. Riesling vines are today 30 to 65 years old and some are still ungrafted.

"Super-elegant for a Mosel Auslese with such impressive concentration. Very fresh and bright in spite of the ample richness and unfermented grape sweetness on the medium-bodied palate. No sign of honey from botrytis, but great peachy fruit and stacks of wet-stone character in the very long finish. Drink or hold."
