This Riesling is pale yellow in colour with green reflexes. The nose reveals aromas of sweet honey melon, ripe apple, peach and pineapple. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with a well balanced sweetness and acidity.
The Axel Pauly estate cultivates a total area of nine hectares. The fruit for this Riesling comes from the top site of Lieserer Niederberg-Helden where the vines are more than 60 years old. The vineyard faces southwest and has a slope of up to 70 degrees in steepness in some parts. The soils are grey and blue slate.
The grapes were hand-picked and sorted before they underwent a period of maceration for 10 hours. Fermentation occurred spontaneously in stainless-steel tanks with natural yeasts.
Axel Pauly is a dynamic young star of German wine. After many years honing his craft across Germany, as well as in California and New Zealand, he took over the Pauly family estate, in the Mosel, from his father. Most of this 10-hectare estate is situated in the village of Lieser, at the heart of the Mosel Valley, with the exception of a small parcel in neighbouring Bernkastel. Fittingly, the label features the Mosel hills which, when turned on their side, reveals the ‘Tres Naris’ (or ‘three noses’) of Axel, his father and his grandfather.
